Tidy Tuesday: Water Sources
By Matthew Henderson in dataviz

This week’s Tidy Tuesday data comes from Water Point Data Exchange (WPDx), a global platform for sharing water point data.
Inspired by David Robinson’s livestream on 4/5/21 I created a faceted map plot showing the locations of different water sources throughout Ethiopia.

This was my first time using Thomas Lin Pedersen’s {ragg} package. It allowed me to use one of my favourite fonts, Cardo.
I was also inspired by the work of Georgios Karamanis and a tweet by Nicola Rennie.
