# Dashboard

> Monitor your carbon emissions with interactive visualizations

## Dashboard Overview

The Dashboard is your central hub for monitoring carbon emissions from your logistics operations. It provides a comprehensive view of your environmental impact through interactive charts and visualizations.

### Key Components

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion icon="chart-line" title="Emissions Overview">
    The main chart displays your total carbon emissions over time, allowing you to track trends and identify patterns. You can filter by time period to focus on specific date ranges.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion icon="truck" title="Transport Mode Breakdown">
    This visualization shows the distribution of emissions by transport mode (air, sea, road, rail), helping you identify which modes contribute most to your carbon footprint.
