Description
Summary:The framework of this paper is the development of an online application that displays various maps based on the concept of functional indicators. Target users are European stakeholders who are not familiar with statistical procedures or spatial analysis. The proposed tool is conceived to fulfill three main needs: (1) producing a simplified and coherent representation of spatial patterns, (2) computing indicators in a context-aware approach, (3) embedding those functionalities in a user-friendly platform.
