Areabase is a project to create an Android app to bring UK census and police data into one place (also tells you how good or bad your area is)
Areabase also happens to be my A-level Computing practical project, and due to the limitations imposed by the exam board, I cannot accept pull requests :(
- ONS Neighbourhood statistics is used to fetch most of the data about an area.
- Police data API is used to get detailed crime data
- Other data will be used as well
- GPS will allow you to view data about your immediate neighbourhood instantly
- AreaRank will be a ranking service rating areas on the scale from 1 to 10.
- The user interface will have a summary view with cards showing you chunks of information in a manageable, natural-language form
- Designed according to emergent industry trends, etc.
Eclipse projects containing Areabase itself, together with its dependencies, as well as other code that will eventually find its way into Areabase but lives separately for now.
Areabase, and all of its components that I wrote, is licensed, at least for now, under GPL v3.
NDE2ImplTesting, the stuff I wrote, is licensed under BSD 2-clause. It's just a testing project and I invite you to go nuts on it.
NeighbourhoodStatisticsExchange, the stuff I wrote, is licensed, at least for now, under GPL v3.
Note that I reserve the right to change these at any time (should the exam board require it), and cannot accept any modifications from third parties into these projects in this repo (again, exam board compliance).
