#13: Choropleth Maps

Project Overview

Geographical data visualizations are some of the most impactful forms of data visualization, as these visualizations easily allows the user to locate places familiar to themselves. One popular geographical visualization is a choropleth map -- a map that shades a geographical region to visually encode data about the region. As an example, population density maps and per-capita income maps are common choropleth maps.

Understanding how to use an external library, and read the documentation provided by a library developer, is a critical skill to always continuing to learn and expand your Data Science skills! In this project, you will learn about the folium Python library -- https://python-visualization.github.io/folium/ -- to create choropleth maps from a DataFrame!

Let's nerd out! :)
