I am a geographer by training, and my professional career has always had a predominantly geospatial focus. Having recently completed a forty-hour course in R, using RStudio and GitHub, I feel that a whole new world of analysis has opened up before me. This work represents the meeting point between my basic geographical instinct and the technical capabilities of statistical programming. It is important to emphasise that I have invented this data and model entirely, so the results have no real meaning and contain inevitable biases. Their sole purpose is to learn and demonstrate the capabilities of this language. I believe that geographical knowledge and code are interdependent, as one without the other would not function successfully. It is precisely this symbiosis that I hope will make a difference in my current job search.
