Teaching Team feedback #1

Good idea team C,

I think this is a very interesting question to solve and even if you can focus on just Vietnam, this is also fine.

I have a few questions

  1. Have you thought about the technological aspects? which libraries are you going to use? How are you going to deploy/ demo your app?
  2. For modelling aspects? have you identified suitable candidates for base model? We are not going to require you to build the model from scratch, but if you use any pre-built model, you should be able to evaluate its performance and somewhat ensure it's a suitable and at least near-optimal choice.

Solid idea + detailed plan, if everyone is happy with their workload, you can kick-off the project asap

Thank you for your question, I'll answer them:

  1. For the technological aspects, I think I will use R for this interactive globe visualization. Most likely we will display it on a website, so R shiny is a prime candidate for us. For interactive visualization on the web, we think that JavaScript or JavaScript-related library in R is absolutely needed, such as three.js for 3D chart visualization.
  2. We have identified some model visualizing the globe using three.js and other libraries, such as Kaspersky Real-Time Map, and we find that they are pretty visually appealing. Also, there are lots of examples using R to visualize globes in R, so I think R and JS are near-optimal choice on this problem.
