How the Ghana Floods animation was created by David Quartey.
From the post:
Ghana has always been getting flooded, but it seems that only floods in Accra are getting attention. I wrote about it here, and the key visualization was an animated map showing the floods in Ghana, and built in R. In this post, I document how I did it, hopefully you can do one also!

David’s focus is on Ghana but the same techniques work for data of greater local interest.
