Included here is code, data and discussion to support our paper: On the use of ‘glyphmaps’ for analysing the scale and temporal spread of Covid-19 reported cases.
In this repo is code for :
- Collecting and processing Public Health England’s daily cases
data cases and geography datasets
in
./code/download_data.R - Pre-computing over the cases data for charting in
./code/data_staging.R - Helper functions for generating ridge and line charts in
./code/helper_functions.R - Example code for generating and parametrising full glyphmaps in
./code/examples.R - Code for generating our implementation of this
Washington Post
graphic,
a glyphmap of Covid-19 case data by US county:
./code/washington_post.R
