# WPDX | Water Points in Zambia Data Analysis
Project Scope
This project aims to analyze data related to water points in Zambia. The data regarding the water points was compiled by the Water Point Data Exchange (WPDX). The WPDX is a platform to compile crowdsourced data focused on rural water points (wells, springs, tap stands, etc.) with contributions from governments, NGOs, and researchers.
This analysis focused on factors such as;
Number of water points in a district
Status (functional & non-functional) of the water points
Type of water source
Technology used to access water
Donors of water access technology
Water points installed in a particular year
Project Approach
The dataset for this analysis was obtained from the Humanitarian Data Exchange (HDX) website. The preparation and cleaning of the data in the dataset was done using Microsoft Excel. Thereafter, the dataset was imported into MySQL Workbench for analysis using SQL. Finally, visualizations of the analyzed data were created using Tableau.
