Jennie's Ultimate Road Trip

Description

Jennie's Ultimate Road Trip will create a tour itinerary for your road trip.  Give the web app your starting city, ending city, dates of travel and your favorite artists and Jennie's Ultimate Road Trip will find all the best events that you should see on the way, and schedules your trip so you arrive in town just in time for the show.

 

APIs Used

 

  • Some city database that I found on the web
  • Songkick's awesome events API to get all the events
  • Personal Catalogs from The Echo Nest to create artist recommendations
  • The Google Maps API to show the route

 

Application Notes 

Scheduling a route through artists that also happen to be traveling is a bit tricky. The 'travelling rock star' problem is harder than the 'travelling salesman' problem

 

URL for the app:

The app is demo-able, but not ready to release yet, so no public URL is available right now.

I humbly suggest calling it the "travelling groupie problem"... :) Awesome stuff. -madadam
