Description:
|
This project investigates urban drinking water quality via mapping analysis. I am seeking a research team to help build a data set that examines the relationship between poverty, race, various businesses and drinking water quality within the United States. Team members will use Google Maps to build datasets depicting locations of various businesses within the U.S. Ambitious team members will have the opportunity to perform geographic and statistical analyses of the data using ArcMap and statistical programs. All team members will engage in discussions of political theory that explain location-based phenomena. |
