Interactive Visualization of Food Security

IT 7993 Capstone, Spring 2019

MSIT, Kennesaw State University

Team members: Chelsee Dickson, Carole English, Alicia Estabrook, Alejandro Sanchez (team lead), and Nasiya Sharif.

The purpose of this project is to measure the impact of a country’s food security level on secondary school enrollment and the generation of income through the education channel.

We aim to:

• Visualize food security and secondary school enrollment world wide
• Simulate the economic impact of changes in a country’s food security level through the education channel

Our project advances an interactive web-based tool that allows a user to click on a country to get information about its policy strengths and weaknesses from the perspective of a social market economy. The user can then simulate policy changes and see how this policy change changes the economic growth trajectory. Results will be presented through visualizations, and data have been prepared by the Project Owner.
