date: 12/24/2015

Developing Data Products Coursera project.

• Crime Analyzer web application provides graphically detailed insight for crime analysis in a large metropolitan area.
• The application comes loaded with Huston Police crime dataset from January 2010 to August 2010, but datasets from other metropolitan areas can be loaded.
• The application loads violent crime by type, by month or by a combination of both.
• Each crime type is depicted with different color pallet.
• The crime location is geocoded and is displayed on a map in the exact spot where the crime took place.

Here is the Refrence for the data

• Clustering feature allows to combine and view crime from a bird’s eye view.
  
• When hovering over and clicking on each crime dot , a pop up will show the type of offense, date and time of the crime.
• The App has a floating panel with two drop down filter menus and a clustering click box.
• The user can select on the drop-down menu for type of offense and/or Month the crime took place.
• User can drag the floating panel by clicking and holding the mouse on anywhere on the panel.

• The app documentation tab includes the help and how-to use the app information.
