Process & What We Learned

Gather Data

Generate Map

Process Data

IncidentExposed

Learned to web scrape using the BeautifulSoup and Requests libraries to obtain and store data in CSV files using the CSV library

We generated pins on a map using the Python Folium library, where pins were coded by crime/incident severity.

Used Pandas and Google Maps API to create dataframes with information ready to be mapped, such as exact addresses and coordinates

We created a webapp using Figma, where we embedded our concentration map functionality
