This app was designed as part of HackCulture 2018 (https://publish.illinois.edu/hackculture/)
We designed this app to map out the safest route (instead of the shortest ones provided by Google Maps).
Routes are determined by crime data obtained from the City of Urbana (https://data.urbanaillinois.us/Police/Police-Incidents-Since-1988/uj4k-8xe8)
Each incidence of crime is given a weightage depending on the recency of the crime. A total score is then calculated, and the route with the lowest score will be selected.
This is the default collection for all research and scholarship developed by faculty, staff, or students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
