Day 4: Visualising Data

Goal

To get you using the tools taught to create maps and plots using data.

Introductory session:

• An introduction to Quarto (some examples of what you can do):
  • The Palmer Penguins
  • Create beautiful documents with R, Python, Julia and Observable
  • Other ‘Real-Life Examples’ of Presentations, Web Sites and Books
  • Quarto for the Python User

So that you can see how I’ve used Quarto to create all of the material for this week:

Documentation

• For help with markdown (how you write Quarto content) look here.
• For help with a presentation you can look here.
• For help with a web page you can look here
• For help with the PDF report look here.

Applied session:

• You have three ways that you can work on the project:
  1. Creating a PDF report in Quarto starting from: Report.qmd and include-in-header.tex. [These need to be in the same directory!]
  2. Creating a Presentation (which you view in your browser) from: Presentation.qmd.
  3. Creating a Web Page (which you obviously view in your browser) from: Web_Page.qmd.
• Adding new data to your map
• Changing colours, line widths, …, choropleths and maps-in-maps.
• Working on a report — choosing a topic of interest (continuation of Day 3)
