Development of a website acting as a database for the UC San Diego Health La Jolla Campus.
Conduct data analysis of electricity, water, and gas statistics between UCSD Health Facilities (pictured right).
Our Project Database:
As part of our project, we coded a website that collated the energy use data as available on the UC San Diego Energy Use Dashboard. This website was coded in HTML, and we have all the code available in a GitHub repository. Please contact bgormally@ucsd.edu to gain access to the code and repository. You can view screenshots of our website below.
