Simple app to get the population given a circle in the map, this is a beta version focusing only the state of Texas.
You might notice some overvalue in the population sizes, probably because the population values used here are an estimation of population count for the year 2020. Either the map coverage and the year's population count could be easily adapted to any state/region/country using data available here.
Just compose build and up and you will hav ethe Docker container up and running:
$ docker-compose build
$ docker-compose upIf everything went well, you should be able to run the application in http://localhost:5000. This article is a good walkthrough for some concepts used in this project.
