City air quality study
Compare air quality across Indian cities and seasons with statistics and clear charts.
The brief
Citizens and city planners want to know how bad air quality really is, and when. Compare pollutant levels and AQI across cities and seasons, test whether differences (such as the lockdown or Diwali) are real, and present the findings clearly. Good looks like: clean data with gaps handled, correct comparisons, and charts a newspaper could print.
What you will build
