Creators

Description

COVID-19 Global Data Visualisation is a MATLAB GUI app developed by Eleni Christoforidou using MATLAB R2022b. The app allows users to easily visualize daily and cumulative COVID-19 cases and deaths globally, and by country and state or region. The data is sourced from the Coronavirus Resource Center at Johns Hopkins University and covers the period from January 22, 2020, to December 28, 2021.

Features:

  • Visualize daily and cumulative COVID-19 cases and deaths.
  • Filter data by country and state or region.
  • Data sourced from the Coronavirus Resource Center at Johns Hopkins University.

Customization:

  • The source code can be modified to visualize different data, provided a new .mat file with the exact same structure is supplied by the user.

Included Files:

  • Source code for the MATLAB GUI app
  • .mat file containing the COVID-19 data

Data Disclaimer:

Please be aware that the data provided by the Johns Hopkins University Coronavirus Resource Center may contain errors and inconsistencies due to various factors. These factors can include human error from manual data entry, changes in the way countries count and report cases, differences in reporting standards, and retrospective adjustments to the data. As a result, anomalies such as cumulative cases being less than daily cases may be present in the data. While the app aims to visualize the data accurately, users should be cautious when interpreting the visualizations and consider these potential inaccuracies. It is recommended to consult official and reliable sources for the most up-to-date and accurate information on COVID-19 case and death data.

For more information, please refer to the README file included in the repository.

Download the release to access the source code and accompanying .mat file, and start exploring the COVID-19 global data visualization.

Remember to acknowledge the source of the data and the author of the code if you decide to use or modify the app for your own purposes.
