Summary

This project involves building a data visualization webpage using WhatsApp photos, Google Maps, Python, Twilio, and Clarifai APIs. The app allows users to share pictures of the sky with their location coordinates and view them on a global map. The user can also send in their current location and receive a picture of the sky from friends and family who have opted-in to the WhatsApp sandbox. The project demonstrates how to use various APIs, including Twilio for WhatsApp messaging, Clarifai for image recognition, and Google Maps for visualization. It also showcases the importance of data visualization and the potential applications of this technology in creative projects.
