High-Level Project Summary
We chose the project QuakeHunter to improve the data visualization through a friendly graphical interface and we change the color scale. This objective will be achieved by modifying specific functions in the source code. The importance of the challnge is to show the relevant information in a first plane and to be inclusive with people who suffer from color blindness.

Detailed Project Description
The project shows an interface where the relevant information it is fixed by default. Also, the color scale was changed to be inclusive with people with color blindness. The benefits of this project are the implementation of new things to make it more inclusive for people who suffer from colorblindness and the better visualization of the interface. We hope to understand the code correctly, so we can implement the changes we decide to make. We use as a template the official code retrieved from the page of Quake Hunter, we develop in JavaScript, HTML and CSS in order to maintain the same structure.
Space Agency Data
We used data from U.S Geological Survey.
Hackathon Journey
It has been quite challenging for all members, but at the same time satisfactory, we learned a lot of things about programming and we improved our knowledge with the tools that the program brings us, as well as we improve of manage of the pressure while modifying the things that are not working the way we want them to do it, and in this case, we focussed on the code before changing it. We decided to select this challenge to learn more about the recent seismic events in our country. Our approach was to define the characteristics to be modified to manage our times and organize the work efficiently. We are solving all the challenges with patience and giving enough time to all of them. We would like to thank you for the opportunity to be here and to participate in this challenge.
