Geographic data:

  • refineries at geographic points
  • transport by truck, boat, rail or pipeline
  • assume demand is sized by population

Use a greedy algorithm to route fuel to customers


Nearbyness... Reverse Geolocation

Reverse geocoding is the business of turning a lat/long into a named place. Besides a neat party trick it turns out that named places have a few benefits over floating point pairs: a) humans don’t tend to think in floating point pairs.. b) while technically the space is infinite and the lat/long space is finite, in practice the names we use to call places converge rapidly to a very small set (in any given region), and for whatever reason (natural or historical) seem to have an affinity for being hierarchical. Both good properties for clustering, compression, and discovery. -- @kellan

Early next week I'll be doing a deep dive into use cases and industries, so
I'll be revisiting this thread with hopefully some helpful ideas at that
time.
