This project will be a Weather Application with a graphical User interface.When the program starts, it should ask to select the country (Netherlands, Turkey or USA). According to the selected country, the provinces should be listed based on the population. User will be able to see the name of the province they chose, the state they are in, the population, weather (as an icon), temperature. With the City search option in the program, it should be able to show the city information and weather conditions.
Tools:
Object Oriented Programming (OOP) and Graphical User Interface (GUI) will be used in the project.
PyQT5 will be used as GUI
Scrapy will be used as Web Scrapping Tool.
HTTP-Request and API will be used.
PostgreSQL will be used as DBMS.
Each team will have 1 mentor.
GitHub will be used in the project.
There will be a 30 minutes meeting with teammates every day.
The content of the daily meeting is generally as follows:
What each person did
The general direction in the project
Task sharing until tomorrow
A meeting will be held with the mentor on the specified dates
Each person in the team will tell about the part he did to the mentor in the meeting. After each meeting, the mentor will make an assessment of whether each team member is working or not
After the project is completed, an online project presentation will be made.

Suggestion:
-Step 1 can be done together in the group.
-Step 2, 3, and 4 can be done in parallel. Group members can share tasks.
Step 1:
Design GUI for Weather App
Consider Web Scrapping Data Visualisation
Consider Web API Data Visualisation
UML Design (Making Plan)
You can use this tool to draw → https://app.diagrams.net/
Use Case Diagram
Class Diagram
Design ERD for the current version of the Program. Add DB for the current version of the Program according to the ERD design. All information should be ordered and stored in DB No more file usage.
Step 2:
Scrapy will be used extracting the data you need from Wikipedia web site.
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lijst_van_Nederlandse_plaatsen_met_stadsrechten
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_population https://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%BCrkiye%27deki_illerin_n%C3%BCfuslar%C4%B1_(2020)
City, state and population information is drawn from the website addresses with Scrapy.
The name of the selected City will be displayed in the program.
The region or state of the selected City will be shown in the program.
The population of the selected City will be displayed in the program.
All information should be ordered and stored in DB
Step 3:
HTTP-Request and API will be used to pull real-time weather information from the website.
Weather information of the selected cities is taken from https://openweathermap.org/api site.(You can choose other web sites)
The Temperature of the selected City will be displayed in the Program.
The Weather of the selected City will be displayed in the program with Icons.
The icons and how to use the icons are explained in detail on the site given below,
https://openweathermap.org/weather-conditions .
All information should be ordered and stored in DB
Step 4:
Program Main page will contain the following components.
Countries
Selected Country, Cities, Regions, Populations ordered By Population
City Search Bar
Selected City Name,
Selected City Region,
Selected City Population
Selected City Temperature (Celsius)
Selected City Weather Condition Icon
Step 5:
Final presentation
GitHub Usage Requirements
Each team will have a GitHub repository and each team member will be added as a collaborator.
All tasks should be created as an issue on the issues page.
Each team member will get assigned issues.
Master will be protected. Branches and pull requests will be used for development.
