Studying Data from the Food Environment Atlas
Tatum Rask, Sayantan Sarkar, Omeiza Olumoye, Craig Corsi
Can we use data from the Food Environment Atlas (https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-environment-atlas/) to understand the factors that affect a community's access to affordable & healthful food? We used variables from the Food Environment Atlas to predict obesity rates and the prevalence of low food security. We also trained a classifier to predict whether a county is considered a persistent poverty county.
