CoviDemographics

Site can be accessed at https://covidinfosite.herokuapp.com/

Covidemographics site provides a one stop access to county demographics and covid cases. Data used on this project are extracted from COVIDACTNOW.ORG and US Census Bureau API As I analyzed covid data, I always wondered about the factors that could be driving covid cases in one county vs the other. On this site, Users can not only see the covid cases and deaths but also view county demographics including population, population density, poverty (%), and % of people with at least a bachelor's degree.

User-Flow

Site defaults to Los Angeles County, California. User have an option to change the location using the Select Fields on the field.


List of APIs


Here is the schema model. joint_code will be used to access covid information regarding a specific county.


Table to store general location information for API accessibility.

id county state county_code state_code joint_code
1 Butler OH 017 39 39017

A table will also be stored in the DATABASE with state's fips code and state abbreviations for access to COVID API.

id state state_abb
1 39 OH

Although this information will not be saved in our database because of the file size, here is what I will be grabbing from the COVIDACTNOW API

id joint_code cases deaths date
1 39017 34548 452 02-18-2021

For states comparision. I will also be extracting covid information in state level such as cases, deaths, case density, and risk level.



For county demographics information, site will make a direct request to the API.
