We are the Village. Our goal is to build our community with like minded people who want to bring awareness to the effects of air pollutants in our world.
Background: We have built the skeleton application that visualizes air pollutants in the world. Our open source project invites collaboration from other developers to expand upon our platform with other useful features, such as predicting future air quality and rating safety for people with asthma.
Resources: OpenAQ API, Python, Django, D3js, GeoIP
Challenges Faced:
- Scope of direction
- Finding collaborative rhythm
- Difficulty of datasets needed in readable file formats
- Questionable absence of data from government website
- Scope of time per project phase: Research, Objective, Code, and Design.
