Parametric Design With Data

For this homework, I decided I would work with Depression stats in the United States. I created points using the average longitude and latitude of each state.

And I assigned them the depression stat associated to create a 3D shape along the normals.

I would like to CNC the shape to see how it looks like. It is interesting to see how the shape of the country looks like when the heights of the points are generated by mental heath stats. It looks like the higher depression rates are from the South East and the Mid West.
