Extending geo-spatial analytics with distance measures
Our last use case is also geo-spatial analysis on the same Chicago traffic dataset, but this time, we will add another component. We will look to rent a new place but with the requirement that there are no more than n intersections in a radius of x and Navy Pier should be at most y miles away. The variables n, x, and y should be interactive in order for us to make changes and have a very flexible dashboard experience. The questions to ask about this task are:
- How can we add any given location in Chicago to our dataset? It is currently only showing intersections and violations.
- How can we make the n, x, and y variables?
- How can we add a radius indicator to any given point on the map?
- How can we measure the distance between two variable points?
All those questions will be answered in the following steps:
