• Title of your application: Seeds of Change

• Provide a description of how the code works and how you handle data: In this Shiny application, raster data files are loaded from disk and processed according to user-defined inputs, calculating measures of environmental difference between a user's selected site and other locations across California. The results are displayed to the user via a leaflet map and a graph, and can also be downloaded by the user as a .tif file.
