General info

This project is about using Machine Learning algorithms to detect best spot for setting up a restuarant for near famous watefalls in Tamilnadu.

Technologies

• Python
• Jupyter
• Foursquare API

Data

The data regarding the names of the waterfalls has been taken from the Wikipedia website listed here. The data lacks the exact location of the waterfalls as well as the venues nearby. Hence these datas are acquired from the Geocoder Package in Python. The nearby venues are found using the Foursquare API.

Machine Learning Algorithms Used

• Kmeans clustering

Results

From the above data analysis, we can predict that it would be a good decision if the restaurants are constructed in Cluster 3. Cluster 1 seems to be equipped with good hotels and restuarants nearby. On further analysis on Cluster 3, Cluster 2 and Cluster 1 we find that these Waterfalls have shortage of good hotels and restaurants nearby
