Replace or Rework Dataset #8

Closed MicheleTobias closed 1 year ago

The cat data still works because we have our own copy of it, but the images were links to a site that has been taken down. Either we need to find a new dataset to work with or we need to improve the data we currently use.

I tested the Lake Monsters dataset by just swapping in the file for the campus_cats.js file and it worked. The attribute tables even shared some columns so it didn't throw an error, but there will need to be some clean up and renaming of variables, as well as re-making the example code files.

I added the lake_monsters.js file to the data folder so that's an option to use.

Pamela suggested maybe Global Affairs or the Center for Community and Citizen Science might have something interesting.
