WarInspector

WarInspector is a web application for the Visual Analytics course at Sapienza Università di Roma.
It provides an insight into the arms trade that takes place between the different countries of the world, both quantitatively, by analysing how many are exported or imported, and qualitatively, by analysing the trade according to different categories or individual models.
These data are also accompanied by more general country information, such as GDP or refugee numbers, in order to find similarities between countries in certain conditions and to understand how the war market can affect other aspects of a country.
This provides a complete overview of the world war market and allows us to analyse which is the most profitable ones or which country is the most belligerent.
