High-Level Project Summary
The project was supposed to be a web page that could help everyone know what kind of species or insects there are in their location at that moment. Not only that but also present to them the possible future of the species based on temperature, precipitations and other factors. It was supposed the challenge by showing everyone the species that were in their zone and the states they are. If they are in risk or are a invasive specie in that area.

Detailed Project Description
Bug Move is a web page that shows you the current state of the species that leave near your location.
How are they doing right now?
How some factors like precipitation, temperature and others affect them?
What kind of activities that we do are bad for them?
And more
In Bug Move was made with the idea that everyone could learn about the species, with a collection of facts about them and also with API's so that everyone could use the info more efficiently. Also one idea was that we could use data to train models in Machine Learning so that we could predict what factors affect them the most or their future status.
At the end the only thing I could do was a web page that presented the names of some species, but do not expect that to be the case in the future because I will try to make everything I said above.
Space Agency Data
I tried to use the nasa data but that took a lot of my time. I used data from inaturalist because it was more accessible and took less time than those. I will however try to use it in the future for more projects.
Hackathon Journey
It was very challenging since I didn't find more partners to work with, and because of that and the finite amount of time I had it was very difficult for me but I like that I can submit something I did in very few time and that I can continue improving in the future.
I tried to figure the databases and everything after I had completed the first part of the project, the index page and how it was going to work, and after I finally realized I needed another approach I tried to something different but the time was a problem there.
