Are you more interested in the "plot points" software, or the "grouping algorithms"? What kind of clustering are you doing? - Based on points users all tagged and therefore creating clusters of "you like *this*, so you'll probably like *these*"? - Location-closeness clustering - Keyword terms based on generic names the points may have?
There are various algorithm/packages for any of the problems above. And for creating points it would be easy to either use a current service (of which there are many) and then apply your algorithms to that (as Mike was suggesting), or roll your own using pieces of existing mapping/archiving software packages available.

Hi andrea, you can record and map points easily with apps like platial.com by naming points with any plain language tag of your choice. cheers~ -mike liebhold Andrea Moed wrote: For a webapp I'm hoping to build, I want to look at a collection of geo points, discover clusters of points and assign the clusters useful geographic names (where "useful" = good web search term). Does anyone know of freely available code for doing this? thanks much, --andrea ________________________________ _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking
