medical, drug usage, opioids
The dataset contains information regarding each accidental death associated with drug overdose in Connecticut from 2012 to June 2017. The data was derived from an investigation by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner which includes the toxicity report, death certificate, as well as a scene investigation. The set includes information such as Date, Sex, Race, Age, Location with the type of drug used either in single usage or multiple combinations.
The topic may provide important insight as to what drug or what combination of drugs are the leading cause of accidental death in connecticut and how age or gender may play in part in the cause of death. The data set contains over 4000 records, but does not contain any numerical variables apart from age, which might be a shortcoming in gaining better insight.

Weather, Climate, Crop Yields, Principal Crops
This dataset requires the combination of two different data sources. The first set being crop yields which highlights the annual production of crops dating back to the 1990s. The second data set contains weather data for each state. But we will mostly be focusing our effort on NY.
This data will help us understand how weather affects crops and show if there is a declining or increasing trend on crop production in correlation with the climate change.
Downloading this data set will be a challenge as there are no visible API for both data sources at the moment and the data is spread out. Some web scraping might make it easier to obtain data from the second site, but more likely building the entire data set will require a lot of manual copy and pasting.
