# πͺπ¬ Egypt Births and Poverty Analysis
A Spatial Statistics project developed in **R** to visualize and analyze birth counts and poverty rates across the governorates of Egypt using GIS techniques, static maps, and interactive web maps.
---
## π Overview
This project combines geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic data to create spatial visualizations of Egypt's governorates. The analysis focuses on two key indicators:
- Birth counts (2016)
- Poverty rates (2014)
The project demonstrates how spatial datasets can be merged with statistical data to generate informative choropleth maps and interactive visualizations.
---
## π― Objectives
- Visualize birth counts across Egypt.
- Visualize poverty rates across Egyptian governorates.
- Merge spatial and statistical datasets.
- Generate publication-quality maps.
- Create interactive maps for exploring regional statistics.
---
## π Technologies Used
- R
- sf
- dplyr
- ggplot2
- leaflet
- htmlwidgets
- stringr
---
## π Project Dataset
The project uses three datasets:
- **GADM Egypt Administrative Boundaries (GeoPackage)**
- **Birth Statistics (2016)**
- **Poverty Statistics (2014)**
The datasets are joined using governorate names after cleaning and standardizing the text.
