In this project I want to do some basic data exploration with traffic congestion data in jupyter notebooks. Furthermore, I want to experiment with different ways of visualizing geographical data. One way is using a street shapefile as a basemap to plot over, another is the folium library which uses OpenStreetMap as a base map. As folium plots can currently not be displayed on github directly, rendering the jupyter notebook through nbviewer. By clicking here, you can see the notebook in the nbviewer. Additionally, I am working on building an interactive dashboard with the dash library and the work for that is in dashboard.py . I found the data here.
