Using Motion Charts to look at PingER data by metric versus Covid cases
...
...
Examining using PingER metrics from pingtable.pl
Impact by region
China and North America
Looking at the
See Using Chart.ca for how to make your own motion charts, and an example. Note since the Covid-19 data for the USA and Austrailia are only available by state and for China are only available by province we currently have not included those countries. Some examples are below
| PingER Metric raw daily | Covid-19 Confirmed (Selected) | Covid-19 Deaths (Selected) | Covid-19 Confirmed (Europe) | Covid-19 Confirmed (Africa) | Covid-Confirmed (Latin America) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ipdv or jitter (msec) | Motion | Motion | Motion | Motion | |
| Throughput (kbps) | |||||
| Average RTT (msec) | Motion | ||||
| Unpredictability (%) |
We repeated the above except:
- To smooth out the PingER data we used a running average of the data over the last 7 days,
- Also rather than displaying the bubble size as proportional to the population, we made the bubble size proportional to Population in thousands / country's area.
PInger Metric running 7 day average | Covid-19 Confirmed (Selected) | Covid-19 Deaths (Selected) | Covid-19 Confirmed (Europe) | Covid-19 Confirmed (Africa) | Covid-Confirmed (Latin America) |

Looking at the plot of daily average RTTs there is a peak (going from 145ms to 160ms) in minimum (average RTT) from Jan 10 to Jan 24th 2020, plus another spike on Feb 19.
