Heat Map/Analytics Dashboard

Matt K.

Posted

So I have a idea of something that I feel would be useful, but a bit stuck on how to start it. Coming here to hopefully find a path forward.

The idea centers around the idea of a heat Map or finding hot/cold areas of activity. This would allow the user to look at areas that are more congested and contrast it with areas that don't see nearly as much activity. Then you'd be able to create a dashboard around the high/low categories and ideally better spot trends.

Question comes down to what would be the best way to do this ideally on a site that one could log into and make custom adjustments as needed.

The data set would be easy enough to pull from multiple sources, it'd also be fairly simple in terms of the different categories etc... assuming that could just dump/update through an API...

Lastly, I know that it'd be easy to be taken advantage of hiring this out so what are some things to look out for or trusted sources.

I have searched high and low for this and can not find anything that matches what I'm trying to do. Plenty of stuff is similar but wrong focus, to the point I wouldn't even be able to customize something existing to fit my needs...or at least nothing I've found.

Thanks in advance!

 Awesome, perfect thank you for this!

Obviosuly, I didn't lay out a ton of detail but any idea of what a reasonable price range would be for something like this or hourly rate?

Hi Matt,

this sounds like an interesting project. I have experience in performing these kinds of tasks. The first step is getting the data. I'd love to work on this with you if you are interested.

@Matt K.

You can check out a project I built called scopeout. You should also checkout tophap. It's got a ton more features and prob closer to what you're thinking about.
