Reported versus incident

12 incidents with a known date. Half were reported within 122.5 days of happening; the quickest took 3 days and the slowest 235 days. Each mark is one incident report. A mark close to the dashed line was reported soon after it happened; the higher above the line, the longer the wait, and the number beside each mark is that wait in days. Hover over a mark to see the organization and the report. Use the options to color or shape the marks by organization type or by organization.
