Conclusions

Challenges faced:

Collecting meaningful data: With so much data available, it’s difficult to dig down and access the insights that are needed most.
Unknown Values: Dealing with the unknown values in the data is a task in itself to analyze in the best way.
Visual representation of data: To understand data it often needs to be visually presented in graphs or charts. It’s difficult to build them manually. Taking the time to pull information from multiple areas is a time consuming.

Conclusions:

Maximum number of attacks are 16903 across the world in the year 2014.
Taliban group has executed the maximum number of attacks i.e 7360 in the last two decades.
Asia is the most affected region by terrorist attacks with Iraq having maximum number of attacks.
Bombing/ Explosion are the most preferred attack type and the same did the maximum damage too.
2016 has seen the maximum number of attacks in India but the maximum number of people were killed in 1992.
In India, J&K has been the most affected state and Srinagar having the highest number of attacks i.e 749.
