Solar Radiation Visualizer

Inspiration

I am interested in data visualization since I have used DataDog before.

What it does

It grabs solar radiation data from NREL api and displays it on line graph and tables based on the longitude and latitude given.

How we built it

I coded it using HTML, CSS, and JS.

Challenges we ran into

I used APIs and frameworks that I've never touched before and I had no idea what I was doing at first.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I was able to successfully create a GET request from an API and parse through the JSON file given.

What we learned

I learned a lot like GET and POST requests and implementing APIs into code.

What's next for Solar Radiation Visualizer

A live graph that analyses data in real time.
