Inspiration
We are all native to countries outside the UK and often search for places to visit or consider moving to. However, we have found that current tools do not give us a good overview of a specific location.
What it does
Presents points of interest (e.g. food, social areas, etc.) near a selected area, crime statistics, weather data, broadband connection speed, etc. Allows the user to select the place they want to search for.
How we built it
JavaScript, CSS, HTML, JSON, NodeJS
Challenges we ran into
Finding APIs that would provide us with free data.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Encompassing lots of different APIs into a usable, easy to read dashboard.
What we learned
APIs can be expensive!
What's next for AroundME
We hope to continue developing the product and introduce new information areas that would be of benefit. This includes creating different pre-set profiles that would auto select a range of points of interest to be displayed.
