Pokémon Card Population Analytics

Project Summary

I developed a website displaying information derived from the grading population of pokemon cards. Collectors send their cards to companies like PSA and CGC, to make sure they're authentic and to give the card a grade based on their condition. The grade is anywhere from 1 (terrible condition) to 10 (near perfect condition). The population report informs collectors how rare their cards are based on how many of them have been graded and how many of them achieved a high grade. PSA's website displays the current population of any given card, how many have been graded, and how many have a specific grade. My website lets you view the changes in population over time to better understand the rate at which certain cards are growing over time. View the website on this link. It tracks PSA pokemon card population data and stores a snapshot of the information for each day. The site can be used to identify population changes over time and better understand the rarity and conditional rarity of specific cards and sets.

Unfortunately, I'm no longer supporting this application but leaving it online to share the work I've done. If you're interested in population data and analysis for pokemon cards, check out pokemetrics!
