3. Now create a map of your subsetted dataset.
First map chunk here
leaflet() |>
setView(lng = -104.8, lat = 41.1, zoom =6) |>
addProviderTiles("Esri.NatGeoWorldMap") |>
addCircles(
data = filtered,
radius = filtered$Data_Value
)Assuming "long" and "lat" are longitude and latitude, respectively4. Refine your map to include a mouse-click tooltip
Refined map chunk here
tooltip <- paste(
"<b>Population Count: </b>", filtered$PopulationCount, "<br>",
"<b>Data Value: </b>", filtered$Data_Value, "<br>",
"<b>Data Value Type: </b>", filtered$Data_Value_Type, "<br>"
)
leaflet() |>
setView(lng = -104.8, lat = 41.1, zoom =6) |>

addCircles(
data = filtered,
radius = filtered$Data_Value,
popup = tooltip
)Assuming "long" and "lat" are longitude and latitude, respectively5. Write a paragraph
In a paragraph, describe the plots you created and what they show.
I chose to focus on Wyoming from within the 500 Healthy Cities dataset. The first scatterplot I made shows the relationship between the crude prevalence value and the population count within Cheyenne, Wyoming. The map I created gives a better visualization as to where this data was taken from. For the tooltip, I decided to include the population count, the data value (#’s in crude prevalence), and the data value type (crude prevalence). The data value type is technically arbitrary since it’s a constant variable throughout the entire dataset; however, I decided to include it as a visual reminder for myself and as an extra piece of information for those who don’t know much about the dataset.
