⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to enhance code clarity and improve data visualization techniques for geospatial and funding analysis.

Key Activities

  • Improved code clarity by adding descriptive comments and renaming columns in GeoDataFrames for better readability.
  • Outlined effective data visualization techniques for funding analysis using various plots such as bar charts, scatter plots, choropleth maps, and bubble charts.
  • Provided example code for creating a choropleth map using GeoPandas and Matplotlib to visualize World Bank funding by country.
  • Modified Plotly plot layout parameters and added traces for World Bank and China projects.
  • Resolved a common error in Python by importing the correct module from Plotly.

Achievements

  • Enhanced the clarity and informativeness of geospatial analysis code.
  • Successfully implemented data visualization techniques for funding analysis.

Pending Tasks

  • Further explore and implement additional data visualization techniques for comprehensive analysis.
  • Investigate more features of the Go programming language for potential future use.
