I like the line curve / average graph. I can make a clear assumption of the data at a quick glance (best types of data visualization).
I’m not a fan of circular visuals, personally find them unnecessarily convoluted and over complicating the data. But sometimes with explanations, it helps. Here is what I gathered.

What are the bottom two reservoirs on the graph? I’m probably supplied by one or both.

I'm guessing your own math skills are a little lacking.

This is what my company has.
We have a manufacturing facility across the border in Mexico and a couple warehouses in Texas. We import the parts from Mexico, to the Texas warehouses and then route them to the appropriate manufacturing facility in the USA (not Texas) so they can be used in the higher level assembly.

Is the top number a rank or physician per 1000?
So confusing

Aha! No big surprise there. Looks like a classic case of Campbell’s Law.

“Admissions stats also played a big role in the rankings formula. In 2003, ranked at 127, Northeastern began accepting the online Common Application, making it easier for students to apply. The more applications NU could drum up, the more students they could turn away, thus making the school appear more selective. A year later, NU ranked 120.” - https://www.bostonmagazine.com/news/2014/08/26/how-northeastern-gamed-the-college-rankings/
It also makes them money. Reject a $100 application and have $30 of labor and cots in it = $70 profit

This is a very well designed chart. one can clearly see the reservoir levels as well as the overall storage sizes. The only weak spot are the two smallest reservoirs on the chart, for which the names are missing. :-/

Some schools court applications just to reject students… it makes them look artificially selective

That was the first thing I noticed too, what a weird result. I'm in the 30-44 age group, and like, what's next? Morse code?
