Raw Ride Data Summary

The dataset above captures a multi-factor ride schedule with the following fields for each entry:

• Ride #: Unique ride identifier, including decimal variants for sub-sessions (e.g., 22.5, 23.5).
• Time Entered: Timestamp when the rider entered the queue.
• Posted Wait: Reported wait time in minutes.
• Gate: Queue gate identifier (letters A through F).
• Time Off: Timestamp when the rider left the gate/queue.
• Terminal: Terminal patient or character engaging in the ride narrative (e.g., Kylo Ren, Darth Vader).
• Primary Destination: The planned primary destination within the Star Wars narrative.
• Hologram: The hologram target encountered during the ride (e.g., BB-8, Yoda).
• Final Destination: The ultimate destination reached at ride end.
• Rebel Spy?: Indicates whether the ride involved a Rebel spying element (Yes/No).
• Additional Notes: Any extra narrative or situational notes (e.g., Rey on Jakku, Batuu ending).

The data structure supports analysis of wait times, routing, and plot outcomes across time and gates. The hourly predictions and visualization blocks provide a foundation for forecasting demand and adjusting operations accordingly.

Observations and Annotations

• Early morning rides (8:20–9:50 AM) show shorter waits and faster transitions, with several entries showing No Rebel Spy and No additional notes.
• The dataset includes several high-variance rows where the rebel spy status is Yes or Yes! especially around 10:10 AM and 7:12 PM, indicating notable narrative events.
• The hour-by-hour predictions indicate a peak around mid-day to late afternoon, with predicted rides increasing in the late afternoon window, which aligns with the observed ride counts in the dataset.
• Several rows include narrative notes such as Batuu ending, paint ending, or Evacuation halfway through, suggesting storyline-driven variations in the ride flow.

Notes and Considerations

• The dataset contains inconsistencies in later time entries (22.5, 23.5, etc.) where some fields appear misaligned. For accurate data modeling, a normalization pass is recommended to align each entry to the 11-field schema consistently.
• The visualizations referenced in the images provide aggregated insights that can be used to tune gate assignments and staff allocation (e.g., Selected Gates distribution and Posted Wait Time trends).
• The presence of multiple final destinations and holograms across entries indicates a dynamic, story-driven ride experience with branching narratives that could be simulated for future ride storytelling planning.

Appendix: Terminology and Field Mappings

• Ride #: Identifier for the queue entry, including fractional variants to denote sub-sessions or multi-part events.
• Time Entered: The timestamp when the rider joined the queue or entered the system.
• Posted Wait: The gate-side wait time reported at entry time.
• Gate: The designated entry gate for the ride.
• Time Off: The timestamp when the rider left the gate or completed ticketing process.
• Terminal: The terminal narrative anchor or character involved in the ride session.
• Primary Destination: The target destination within the ride's narrative arc.
• Hologram: The holographic character encountered during the ride.
• Final Destination: The ultimate narrative destination reached after the ride concludes.
• Rebel Spy?: A boolean indicator of a rebel spy subplot in the ride's storyline.
• Additional Notes: Narrative notes or special conditions observed during the ride.
