I've been seeing a lot of Voronoi diagram maps lately, most of them created with D3.js. For example, Jason Davies has been creating only about really interesting Voronoi maps with D3.js, including this much shared World Airports Voronoi.
However I haven't seen many attempts even in addition to then to role a Voronoi diagram with i of the psyche interactive mapping platforms. Chris Zetter has published a really cool tutorial on how you lot tin larn nigh Building a Voronoi Map with D3 in addition to Leaflet. The tutorial is accompanied past times a exhibit map of U.K. supermarkets.
The Supermarket Voronoi Map is a map which divides the U.K. into a issue of regions. Each part contains i supermarket, where all the locations inside each part are closer to that supermarket than whatever other.
Using supermarkets for the demonstration map is a keen idea, every bit it actually helps to select the usefulness of Voronoi maps. Shoppers tin role the map to honour their nearest supermarket. You tin fifty-fifty select an private chain of supermarket to honour the nearest branch. For event you lot could role the map to honour your nearest Waitrose.
You tin come across how a Voronoi map could too live on really useful to the Supermarket chains themselves. The larger regions on the map could live on used (probably amongst a population layer) to seat untapped markets in addition to possible areas for siting novel stores.
