Project Overview

A Geo data analysis tool that helps organizations make informed decisions using location data and advanced algorithms.

Have you ever wished you could see the world—one zip code at a time—to make smarter decisions on where to focus your efforts? Maplysis turns raw geo data into actionable insights, helping you target the right areas with ease.

Project Overview

Maplysis is a user-friendly web app built to analyze location-based datasets, applying a K‑nearest‑neighbor–like algorithm to identify and visualize optimal target zones on an interactive map.

Real-World Scenario

Picture an NGO that wants to run medical camps across a region. They have zip codes and patient counts but need to know where to set up for maximum impact.

With Maplysis, they can:

  • Upload an Excel/CSV file of zip codes and patient data.
  • Choose a radius (e.g., 10 miles) and a minimum patient threshold for eligibility.
  • See target zip codes highlighted on the map, covering the highest patient densities.

Maplysis Example

After generation, the app produces a downloadable report showing each selected zip code, its patient count, and average distance to neighbors—perfect for data-driven planning.

How It Works

  1. Data Input: Drag and drop your Excel or CSV file into the upload panel.
  2. Parameter Selection: Set the search radius and minimum patient count.
  3. Algorithm Execution: Maplysis applies a proximity-based clustering algorithm to identify key zones.
  4. Interactive Map: View colored markers and radius overlays on an embedded Google Map.
  5. Report Download: Export an Excel file listing selected zip codes and related metrics.

Impact and Benefits

Using Maplysis, organizations can:

  • Optimize Resources: Focus efforts on high-impact areas, reducing time and cost.
  • Improve Outreach: Increase camp attendance by targeting zones with the highest patient concentration.
  • Simplify Analysis: Replace manual calculations with a one-click solution.

Technical Highlights

  • Frontend: React, Material UI for responsive design.
  • Mapping: Google Maps API powers the interactive map components.
  • Algorithm: Custom K‑nearest‑neighbor–style clustering implemented in JavaScript.
  • Deployment: Hosted on Vercel for fast global access.

Next Steps

  • 🌐 Multi-Layer Data: Add support for demographic and socioeconomic overlays.
  • 📱 Mobile Optimization: Enhance touch controls for tablets and smartphones.
  • 🔗 API Integration: Connect with third-party data sources (e.g., census or health databases).
