If you're looking for an introduction to how to write a Task 1 report, I would highly recommend that you watch the three part series "How to Write the Best Overview" which I've linked here.
Just as misunderstanding the question is the bugaboo of many IELTS candidates in Task 2, going for "low hanging fruit" when selecting information for your overview is a problem in Task 1.
I suppose it's not a problem if you're just looking for a Band 6, but to do better, you have to look at the metadata, make comparisons over multiple categories, report trends over time and find THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
Hopefully you'll gleam something out of how to do that and not do that in these video commentaries.
In the first part, we analyze the Task and look at the overview...
In the second part, we look at band scores and a model essay of the same task.
