About the Project
ForCcal tries to mitigate the rising levels of global
warming due to increased carbon emissions.

Emissions from vehicles

and home appliances

Carbon footprint
calculators, checklists

Quizzes, animations,
visualizations

 Data Wrangling
FIND... LOAD... CLEAN...
Australian Car Details
• Reducing columns
• Finding unique cars and
keeping only Australian cars
• Creating new dataframe for
engine capacity and carbon
emissions
• Regular checks for mean
and count of transmission
types, engine capacity and
fuel types
• Checking comparisons using
graphs
• Export clean dataset

 Data Wrangling cont…

CO2 Levels of Different Years

• Keeping relevant columns

• Checking for null values
and imputing null values
• Removing outliers
• Making values consistent
• Checking comparisons
using graphs
• Export clean dataset

Outlier Detection

3 outliers detected

Can be caused due to

incorrectly entered or
measured data

Violating the linearity in the

graph

Might affect result later

or mess up the analysis

9
 Model Evaluation

Accuracy check of model

• Implementation of linear
regression on model
• Finding correlation
between variables
• Determination of
dependent and
independent variables to
find linearity
• Training the model
• Model accuracy: 99.6%
• Making predictions

10
 Data Wrangling cont…

Public Transport Details

• Parsing of pdf file to
extract table
• Usage of
matplotlib,Pandas,Seabor
n, numpy & PyPDF2
• Extraction of the page
containing the table
• Extraction of tabular
values one by one and
placing in new dataframe
• Export clean dataset
