Inspiration
The dataset provided on the hacklytics.io website inspired us to delve deeper on the safety of tourists in areas where shootings are frequent.
What it does
The app tracks the location of the user in real time, and pops up SOS and lyft/uber on the go pop ups so that safety is on the tips of their hands.
How we built it
Using JS, Android and some clustering. We were able to show a map that shows the distribution of gun violence across US.
Challenges we ran into
Clustering was definitely the hardest challenge of them all.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We were able to successfully code an Android app, present a bubble map, and show the clustering of data using k-cluster.
What we learned
We learned how to cluster data and work with datasets. All of us were quite new to data analysis and this provided us a great opportunity!
