This chart combines a radar plot and a choropleth map to show how roadside drug testing varies across different locations.

  • The radar chart displays each jurisdiction's total number of tests, allowing comparison of overall enforcement activity between states.
  • The map highlights distribution of testing volume across Australia. Darker shades represent higher amounts; greyed states indicate no recorded tests in the selected area.
  • Use the dropdown to focus on a specific location. The radar highlights that location, and the map updates to show its contribution.
  • Hover map regions to see detailed statistics, including percentage contribution and positive-test rate for that state.
