What is Hotspot?
Hotspot is an interactive map designed to analyze urban passenger traffic.
The project visualizes the busiest transportation hubs to help identify where people are most concentrated.
How It Works
- Data is collected on metro, tram, and bus stop usage
- The data is processed and grouped into geographic clusters
- The map displays "hotspots" — areas with the highest levels of activity
Technologies
- Next.js + React — frontend framework
- deck.gl — for data visualization on the map
- GeoJSON, H3 — for geolocation and clustering
- OpenStreetMap, Warsaw Data, GTFS — data sources
Who It’s For
- Businesses — to choose locations for stores, cafés, or offices
- Urban planners and transport analysts — to evaluate infrastructure
- Researchers — to understand urban behavior patterns
