This is a web appllication project developed with Django, a tool in python, that allow us keep track of all known squirrels. We used a dataset from the 2018 Central Park Squirrel Census, and visualized the sightings of squirrels by adding, updating, viewing, and analyzing the squirrel data.
In the project, we import 2018 Central Park Squirrel Census dataset. This is a csv file that included 3024 sightings and 30 variables such as ID, date, age, shift, and so on.
Using Python 3.6+, and undering Django web framwork and Git version control.
