JMP Pro 12

JMP Pro 12 is a tool developed by the JMP division of SAS. As the data files are too large to be opened by conventional means such as Excel and Notepad, we will be using this tool to explore the data. Market Segment Analysis will also be done using the clustering function of this application.


Leaflet

Leaflet.js is an open source javascript library for interactive maps. This tool will be used to create a visualization page for the users where a map of Singapore, as well as point symbols representing various facilities will be displayed. The user can select the attribute to be considered for computing the attractiveness index by selecting or deselecting facility layers as well as varying buffer radius. This tool is selected as it provides a range of interactive maps and is easy to implement. It supports various plugins to extend its functionality.


JavaScript

JavaScript is a coding language for the web. We will be using JavaScript for most of the application’s user interfaces as it allows the implementation of various libraries to support user’s interactions and improve visualisation.


Turf.js

Turf.js was mainly used for spatial analysis. It provides the functionality to analyse, aggregate and transform data into GeoJSON.


SQLite and SpatiaLite

SQLite and SpatiaLite extension will be used as a database to store the geospatial data uploaded by the user. SpatiaLite will then be used to query from the database variables needed for the huff’s model.


Apache Spark

We will be using Apache Spark’s Machine Learning Library for performing regression analysis on the huff’s model.
