- Squirrel Problemhttp://jsaezgallego.com/GlobCover_maps_squirrel/
The project answers the following simple question: Can a squirrel cross from north to south Spain without touching the ground?
The answer is: obviously not. But, another question arises, and this one is not so easy to answer: If a squirrel had to go from the north of Spain to the south, touching the ground as little as possible: Which way would it follow?
The answer is not trivial, and it is answered here!
The project consisted of the following steps:
1. Download data from the internet. The data consists of GIS information to determine whether a piece of land is a forest, a river, a man-made construction, and so on.
2. Create a path matrix. The squirrel takes one step at a time. In terms of a raster map, this means we can reach each pixel only from adjacent pixels. Think of it as a huge spare matrix.
3. Optimize the path. Calculate the shortest path from the top of Spain to the bottom. The cost of each segment is the pixel value so forest costs nothing to move across and anything related to water is impossible to cross.
4. Visualize the solution as an interactive map. - Notification Bundlerhttps://github.com/jsga/bundle_notifications
A Python package for bundling notifications in event streams. The goal is to minimize the number of notifications sent to users and to not send more than four notifications per day.
