COVIDaily

ABSTRACT

COVIDaily application gathers, processes, displays, and stores real time COVID-19 information. The application obtains the data from the following resources: Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center’s API, Pennsylvania Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) websites, and Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CSSE) CSV datasets. The data is collected using URL request libraries and scraping techniques. Then, the data is processed using pandas dataframes, numpy and regular expressions libraries. Finally, SQLite3 and matplot libraries are used to display, maintain, and save the processed data. Developed for an Intermediate Python graduate class.
