Start here: http://code.flickr.com/blog/2009/04/07/the-only-question-left-is/ http://github.com/straup/py-wsclustr/tree/master -- ws-clustr ws-clustr is a bare-bones web interface, written in PHP, to the command-line Clustr application. How does it work? To generate a shapefile using ws-clustr simply send a binary (HTTP) POST containing the points you want to clustrize. ws-clustr will send back a compressed shapefile! For example: $> curl --data-binary '@/path/to/points.txt' http://example.com/ws-clustr/ > ~/path/to/clustr.tar.gz Details The file you pass should be formatted as <tag> <lon> <lat> , where tag is any unique string. You may also pass the following HTTP headers with your request: * x-clustr-alpha.Specify the size of the alpha number to run Clustr with. The default value is 0.01 * x-clustr-name. Specify the name of the output file to create. Valid names may only contain the characters a-z (case-insensitive), 0-9 and dashes. The default value is clustr-the current process ID * x-clustr-cache. Use this header to ask ws-clustr to look for, and use, a previously cached version of the points file you want to clustr (rather than sending the whole thing to the server again and again). The value should be: "clustr-" + the value of md5sum(/path/to/points.txt). If the cache file is not found on the server ws-clustr will return an HTTP 404 error. It is left to client applications to decide what to do in those circumstances. (It is also left to people running a ws-clustr to periodically clean out their system's tmp directory where the cache files are stored.) That's it. There are no ponies. No.
