Description for this assignment, I used the Google Map API to visualize the data points. This API comes with a zoom feature and other interesting features that I later discovered while reading the documentation. Given the large amount of data, the rendered graph wasn’t readable at first, therefore I had to implement the sort, filter and search features to enhance user experience. I have made several design choices to group the hotels by proximity. In particular, I used markerclusterer.js which renders the map in a visually appealing and interactive way.
