JEFFCO

This project is for exploring information about Jefferson county, Alabama.
The place my wife and I live.

Why?

I want to learn how to find and exploit public facing data to learn more about my community and improve my data wrangling and visualization skills.

Resources

The GIS data I have been using comes from:

• https://gisweb.birminghamal.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Essentials/Basemap/MapServer

Note: Funny thing about this source... After 6 PM, you cannot query it.
Government requirement???
