Challenge #347: Map Messi and Ronaldo's Goals (Part 2)

[Qiu]

A solution to last week’s challenge can be found here.

This challenge comes to us from @Qiu  who was inspired after reading the following article: https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/using-spatial-and-activities-data-with-python-to-understand-how-.... Thank you for your contribution!

This week, we will continue using datasets to analyze how Messi and Ronaldo do their magic.

For Part 2 of this challenge, you will:
- Use the Part_2_input dataset to create the points where Messi and Ronaldo score their goals.
- Use the FootballPitch dataset to create the Football Pitch.
- Finally, joint the two previous findings to layout the Football Pitch and the goals from Messi and Ronaldo.

Hints
- The x and y coordinates are always in the range [0, 100] there, x position shall be multiplied by 1.25 and Y by 0.85 to get actual scale.
- Give the relatively small scale of a football pitch, it is better to multiply 1000 to both x, y positions of player and football pitch for visibility.

My solution.

Fun challenge.

A fun one! Had to tweak some of the formulas to get the spatial info to match the original image. Spent too much time trying to fine-tune the map.

My solution to #347. Took a little bit of time to work out what Gr/SN were but a fun little challenge in the end!

Here's my take

somehow the positions aren't quite matching the output file yet

@RWvanLeeuwen this is what I had at first based on the hint but then realised that the 1.25/0.85 multiplications only apply to the player positions, not the pitch drawing.
