Plotting Heat Map over Indian Districts using Python
I recently worked on a project involving the plotting of a heat map over the districts of India, using data stored in an Excel file. The project required extensive data cleaning, including normalizing district names and handling discrepancies between the data and geographic boundaries. I utilized Python libraries such as pandas for data manipulation, geopandas for working with spatial data, and matplotlib and Bokeh for visualizing the heat map. By effectively cleaning and processing the data, I was able to create an accurate and insightful visualization that highlighted key trends across different regions, providing valuable insights for data-driven decision-making.
