@VaxHuntersCan and volunteers have put together the VaxFinder API (https://vax-availability-api.azurewebsites.net/swagger) which is an excellent source of information for app developers and end-users.
This code in this repo can be used to pull data from the VaxFinder API and a build an interactive map of vaccine clinic locations in Ontario.
Files in this repo:
- getData.R connects to the VaxFinder API using
httr
andjsonlite
- app.R builds an interactive

For Further Development:
- Incorporating more endpoints as map search parameters
- Fix data anomalies (confirming popups present accurately, etc.)
- UI/UX improvements -
