  1. Not started, Build an earthquake contact reconnaissance queueProjectDecision support3 steps

    Screen strong shallow events, quantify airfield and settlement proximity, and hand over a traceable contact map.

    Worked in 3 steps, each checked before the next one opens.

    1. Select the event queue · SQL
    2. Measure contact gaps · Answers
    3. Hand over the access map · Python

    Datasets

    • Global M5.5+ earthquakes, Jan–Mar 2025 · Point · 86 features · EPSG:4326
    • World airports · Point · 893 features · EPSG:4326
    • Populated places · Point · 1,251 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Select a reproducible event queue in SQL
    • Measure two independent global proximity indicators
    • Deliver an auditable access map with an explicit contact-gap distinction

  2. Not started, Show country CO2 change without losing the outlierCartographyPython

    Join two WDI observations to country polygons, preserve the true change, and cap only the display value.

    CartographyadvancedDifficulty: advanced500 XP~85 min7 checks

    You hand in a Python script.

    Datasets

    • Countries · MultiPolygon · 241 features · EPSG:4326
    • CO2 per capita by country, 2010 and 2022 · Point · 241 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Audit and join two independently sourced global datasets on a stable country key
    • Calculate signed per-capita change while excluding missing year pairs
    • Publish a diverging polygon map with a disclosed display cap and the true values retained
