Project Description


This is a project about giving information to farmers in Victoria, at what soil they are growing crops and what soils are nearby them, secondly, which are bush fire-prone areas near them. So they can plan their investment. For these, we have created an app which shows what type of soil they have nearby and we will show what crops can be grown on them so they can plan their investment accordingly, another feature is to inform farmers about bush-fire prone area around them, so if they want to take some precautions they take it on time.


Data Story


We have used two datasets generated by australia government which clearly shows what crops are grown on what type of soil, what crop gets you more revenue and which are bush fire areas nearby that can affect their crop. And what causes bush fire and amount of destruction it has caused in past few years.
