A visual tool for creating, mapping, and saving wireless topologies. This is a work in progress and much is planned for the project. In time, this tool will allow users to create, manage, and collect several types of wireless topologies with applications in: smart city planning and performance analysis, network optimization and simulation, and more.
Clone with git…
git clone [remote_url]If Flask is not installed…
pip install flaskRun the code…
flask run- Map Controls...
- Ctrl + Scroll to zoom in/out of the map
- Left click + Drag to move around the map
- Left click anywhere on the map to place a marker
- Drag polygon corners to change the polygon's shape
- Information regarding the map and its nodes is updated in real time
- Current information displayed: Polygon area, Number of nodes inside the polygon, Node density
- Button Functionality...
- Make Polygon Movable unlocks the polygon, allowing you to drag and move the polygon. Markers cannot be placed while the polygon is movable
- Make Polygon Stationary locks the polygon in place, allowing markers to be placed again
- Clear All Markers will remove all markers from the map
- Number of Random Nodes allows you to enter a desired number of nodes to randomly place within the polygon
- Save Node Positions incrementally saves the coordinates of nodes within the polygon to the database
- Show Database displays currently saved node coordinates in a table
- Hide Database will hide the table of node coordinates
- Wipe Database will remove all node coordinates from the database
- Download Node Positions allows you to download node coordinates as plain-text (.txt), comma separated values (.csv), or as a database (.db)
- Creation of random topologies based on mathematical distributions
- Create topologies based on existing data in various formats
- Show additional statistics and information about the topology
- Load and edit previously created topologies
- Docker support to prevent issues regarding installation and running project code
