Here���s some code to show the distance to the nearest airports on a map.
Here���s a modified version that shows the distance to the nearest Gregg���s. The hub-and-spoke visualisation overlaid on the map changes as you pan around, making it look like a spider bestriding the landscape.
Jonty���s version shows the distance to the nearest Pret a Manger.
I got nerdsniped by someone saying:
@adactio This would be cool for sessions ����
He���s right, dammit! So here you go:
Session spider.
Now you can see how far you are from the nearest traditional Irish music sessions.
It���s using data from the weekly data dumps from thesession.org���I added a GeoJSON file in there.
Pure silliness, but it does make me wonder what kind of actually good data visualisations could be made with all this scrumptious data.
