Project Summary - SpotScore/spotscore GitHub Wiki

SpotScore is a API to make working with OpenStreetMap easier for other developers who chooses to use it in their projects. The work flow to make the API was quite simple in theory, get a system up and running and then write the API requests using the system built. Unfortunately the system building took way longer than expected and even after it seemed like it is working, it would suddenly stop working for some minor errors. Repairing them took a lot of debugging time and caused negative emotions. In the end the request for getting data from OSM and compiling it into more useful data for mapping is working.

Building the API is just a start, the customer vision was to make the API and have the system up and running. After that it is possible to start working on the main cause of this project, the SpotScore application, which uses the data from OSM and displays it in a specific way to calculate the score of a random point in map by looking the surroundings.
