World Weather Analysis

Project Overview

Analyze, create visuals, and statistically graph the weather data for a potential travel company. Their app PlanMyTrip will use the data to recommend ideal hotels based on clients’ weather preferences.

Resources

  • Data source: API from OpenWeatherMap, API from GoogleMaps
  • Software: Python 3.6.9, Jupyter Notebook, Pandas Library, MatPLotLib, SciPy Libraries

Objectives

  • Provide real-time suggestions for our client’s ideal hotels
  • Create a Pandas DataFrame with 500 or more of the world’s unique cities and their weather data in real time. This process will entail collecting, analyzing, and visualizing the data.

Challenge

Part 1: Get Weather Description and Amount of Precipitation for Each City

How many cities have recorded rainfall or snow at the time the API was pulled?

  • 64 cites have experienced rainfall in the last 3 hours.
  • 30 cities have experienced snowfall in the last 3 hours.

Part 2: Have Customers Narrow Their Travel Searches Based on Temperature and Precipitation

The client chose a location with a minimum temperature of 65 F and maximum temperature of 90 F, and where it has not been raining or snowing in the last 3 hours.

A map marking the location that meet the clients preferred criteria: WeatherPy_vacation_map

A map displaying pop-up markers for some of the locations that meet the clients preferred criteria: WeatherPy_vacation_map_markers

Part 3: Create a Travel Itinerary with a Corresponding Map

The client decided to travel somewhere in South America, between Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, and El Salvador. A map (travel itinerary) is created that shows the route between five cities from the customer’s possible travel destinations in South America. Additionally, a map is created with pop-up markers for the five cities

A map displaying the routes between the five cities they are interested in visiting: WeatherPy_travel_map

A map displaying the pop-up markers for some of the cites in the vacation itinerary: WeatherPy_travel_map_markers
