So far I have encountered the most issues with data. The data that has been collected depends on the country reporting. Some countries in Latin America collect data sporadically or do not report at all. The data is also dependent on the countries reporting the data correctly. Due to some countries not having the correct medical facilities to diagnose the diseases the correct amount of cases can be underreported. I decided to focus on cases that had data to support them and focusing on individual countries. For countries that did not have data I used journals to write about the disease’s presence.
I chose to use Tableau to visualize the data but when trying to upload, the page does accept the embedment code. The text boxes that I used in Tableau do not display the text the way I envisioned. I want to upload the interactive maps to a more text friendly platform. I’m meeting this ken to try and fix the problem.
