This heatmap displays the spending and revenue data in San Francisco from 1999-2016 per fund category. Fund categories are
the categories of spending that each category breaks up spending into. It's very evident that the greatest category of
funds is Operating, for all years and for totals and averages. The amounts shown represent the revenue expenditure. If
the value is negative, like it is under both totals and average for 1999 in Work Orders/Overhead, it means that this fund
had to take this money out of somewhere else in order to allocate the required amount. In the totals section, there doesn't
seem to be a clear trend on increase/decreases in revenue expenditures. The maximum was the total revenue expenditures for
Operating in 2015 at almost $20 billion, and the lowest was for Work Orders in 1999 at almost -$5,000. For the most part, these
trends carry over to the average sections as well. But, when analyzing averages, it is clear that there is a greater spreadout of
spending. The averages show that there is an increase, on average, for spending in operations. 2017 isn't over yet and because
this dataset is constantly updating, the amounts will calculate and probably exceed that of 2016 due to this upward trend. Some examples of things that are
allocated in he Operating funds category include Muni Operating Funds, Wastewater Operating Funds, and Public Utilities Commission
Operating Funds.
Note: It's important to keep in mind the legend scale changes to make sure that the darkness of colors are not misleading.
