DataViewer
What is it?

DataViewer, maintained by DataIntegrationAPI, enables automated creation of thematic maps, graphs, and data analysis. Configurable to fit specific needs, this tool transforms data visualization into an intuitive and accessible process. Essential for simplifying data analysis and functional prototyping, DataViewer assists analysts in the interactive visualization of urban data, improving the understanding and management of smart city projects.

What problems does it solve?

DataViewer simplifies the creation and configuration of complex data visualizations, making it easier for analysts to interpret and manage large volumes of spatial and non-spatial information.

How does the tool work?

Data Visualization: DataViewer offers a range of visualization tools to present data in a clear and informative manner. Customization: Users can often customize DataViewer to meet their specific data analysis and visualization needs.

Open standards

Integrates database operations: uses PSYCOPG2 for efficient database interaction. Manages geospatial data: employs libraries like Fiona, Geopandas, and Sqlalchemy to handle and process geospatial information. Facilitates data visualization: incorporates tools like folium and plotly.express for creating interactive visualizations. Establishes global variables: uses a dedicated module without external dependencies for global variable configuration. Adopts JSON for data exchange, ensuring interoperability and open standards.
