Final product examples for water project

There are many beach ranking systems. What i wanna do that is different is make my own ranking system so that i can rank them on factors that take from many different websites. All three of these beach ranking systems rate the beaches on different things. The first link shows the grading system of the beaches and is very in depth. It has many different things from seaweed to pests that may be at the beach while the second one is about how the beach looks which attracts most people and the overall amount of tourism these areas get. Lastly the third article only talks about how clean the water is and the amount of advisories they get they ranked them either as a good medium or bad which is very simple but gives tourists a idea of beaches they should go to.

I am planning on making my own ranking system and i will be able to use a mix of all these and take certain things to make my own ranking system and rank the top 5 or top 10 beaches in San Diego. I am also hoping to graph these to show how they rank so its also a visual piece.
