Abstract

The study aims to formulate a solution for identifying the safest route between any two inputted Geographical locations. Using the New York City dataset, which provides us with location tagged crime statistics; we are implementing different clustering algorithms and analysed the results comparatively to discover the best-suited one. The results unveil the fact that the K-Means algorithm best suits for our needs and delivered the best results. Moreover, a comparative analysis has been performed among various clustering techniques to obtain best results. we compared all the achieved results and using the conclusions we have developed a user-friendly application to provide safe route to users. The successful implementation would hopefully aid us to curb the ever-increasing crime rates; as it aims to provide the user with a beforehand knowledge of the route they are about to take. A warning that the path is marked high on danger index would convey the basic hint for the user to decide which path to prefer. Thus, addressing a social problem which needs to be eradicated from our modern era. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
