The problem Red Zone solves

A user would use a map which will display all possible areas of red-alert for security from the source to destination. So we can use route map(like google maps) which could highlight as red/yellow/green indicating high , medium and low risks zones. By this we are enabling people with vital inforamtion on the security aspects for the route they would take during the travel from one place to another. The profiling of data coulod be done based on history of crimes in the area, presence of people, security guards, presence of surveillance cameras, no of vehicle in the area at tha given time.

Challenges we ran into

1. Data Scrapping - crime data is confidential, so it was hard to find the data over the web
2. Establish connection between python and node.js - inorder to solve this problem we build a driver program in node js, which allow data transfer.
3. Google Map API - the main challenge is to find all the stopovers between the source and destination, so we used Google direction API but this also failed, then we build node js API to fetch stopovers.
