Concept
The concept for this data visualization assignment is to create a compelling and informative visualization that helps users gain insights into the global impact of coronavirus-related deaths. I used the “Coronavirus Lat/Lon Dataset” sourced from Kaggle, which provides daily data on deaths, recoveries, and confirmed cases from around the world.
Challenges I faced:
The initial challenge I encountered was finding a suitable dataset to work with. I needed a dataset that not only contained coronavirus-related data but also included longitude and latitude information for different regions or countries. Locating a dataset that met these specific criteria was a time-consuming task.
A highlight of some code that you’re particularly
proud of:
let pointX=map(longitude[x],-200,200,0,width); let pointY=map(latitude[x],-200,200,0,height); point(pointX,pointY,death_day[x]);
I am particularly proud of the code snippet where I use the map() function to transform longitude and latitude coordinates into screen coordinates. This part of my project stands out because it demonstrates my ability to convert real-world geographical data into a visually appealing representation on the canvas
