Ben Baldazo Research Plans (Plan Page)
Startups of Houston Interactive Maps - The Whole Process
Use Google Maps to find Longitude and Latitude
- Document how to work Geocode.py and what might go wrong
Put through R code to make an interactive map
- Finding and Documenting the processes required to run the R code may be necessary
- Works on Carto and looks really cool
- We do eventually need to have a plug in and a Carto account so that we can post this on the Wiki
