Motivation
The main motivation behind this simple shiny application is to make it easier to locate blood banks in India. The app provides additional details on pincodes, addresses, contact person name and number.

Data:
Data for the blood bank application is sourced from Open Government Data Platform.
Data limitation:
One of the limitations of this application is that the data is not 100% accurate. If we plot the raw data we see a few blood bank location in Africa. There are close to 82 NA values for latitude and longitude.
Hence when I created this shiny application I ignored these points.
