SRI LANKA WATER PLATFORM DIAGNOSTICS — Small tank DESCRIPTIVE AND SPATIAL dISTRIBUTION analysis

This project is a part of Sri Lanka Water Platform Diagnostics Analytic Work, with focus on descriptive analysis and spatial distribution of small tanks in the dry zone. It provides a fundamental understanding of of small tank's functionality, renovation, locations, utilization, and exposure to drought, and how these features compare to population and agriculture demands, and poverty pressure. The analysis results are presented by a streamlit app written by Python for a team internal review.  (link to streamlit app) (link)
