Description:
|
This study aims to measure and visualize contaminant levels in urban gardens through geospatial analysis and the development of an interactive dashboard. Additionally, it will examine the relationships between contamination levels and factors such as socioeconomic status, Superfund site history, and past and present industrial activity. |
