URBANALYZE is a web application designed to help users determine the suitability of specific areas for housing by analyzing various critical factors, including weather, earthquake activity, air quality index, crime index, and more. With a calculated suitability score based on real-time data and AI analysis, URBANALYZE enables users to make informed decisions about potential housing areas.
- Location Suitability Analysis: Evaluate whether a specific area is suitable for housing based on multiple data points.
- Data Insights: Collect and analyze key data points, including:
- Weather: Current and historical weather patterns and predictions.
- Seismic Activity: Records of earthquakes in the area.
- Crime Index: Analysis of crime rates and types of crimes within the area.
- AI-Powered Scoring: Generate a suitability score using AI to calculate a comprehensive assessment for each area within a defined range.
- User-Friendly Map Interface: Easily input a location and view the analysis results through a visual, map-based interface.
- Next.js: Enables server-side rendering and efficient routing for a fast, responsive user experience.
- Tailwind CSS: Provides a responsive and modern design with custom styling options.
- OpenStreetMap API: Supplies map data to visualize the location and display analytical data overlays.
- Gemini: Integrates data management and enables scalable analytics, empowering the AI model for score calculation.
