Next steps

Now that our literature review is complete, we'll be able to move onto statistical analysis of our datasets. We all read papers on Africa and its history of political violence. Additionally, we covered papers that discuss using the Google Maps API to showcase data on the map. 



The paper that I annotated on this subject dealt with American Foulbrood Disease (AFB). This is a disease that has the ability to wreak havoc on honeybee colonies. Honeybees play a vital ecological (and economic) role in their pollination of plants. The authors were able to use the Google Maps API to help visualize AFB outbreaks and to better monitor it.
