# Explore Young people in detention on an average night, by quarter, Australia, 2008 to 2016

An interactive dashboard over Young people in detention on an average night, by quarter, Australia, 2008 to 2016, worked out in the browser with DuckDB-WASM and Perspective from the Parquet file of a dated version. It needs a browser; an agent is better served by the query API or the files on https://publicdata.au/d/au-youth-detention-population-quarterly/index.md.

The dashboard state sits in the URL fragment. A saved dashboard is at https://publicdata.au/d/au-youth-detention-population-quarterly/explore/?view=<id>, and POST https://publicdata.au/api/v1/views stores one. The frame for embedding is https://publicdata.au/d/au-youth-detention-population-quarterly/embed/?view=<id>, read-only unless the address adds &edit=1.
