Frontend app for data analysis #1

A frontend (web-)app for exploring the timeline data provided by the arc-data-server would be great.

Features:

Allow to define all the different filter criteria provided by the server
Allow to select which fields will be returned (requires #13)
timelineItems are provided as a data table that can be
- filtered
- searched
- sorted
provide mean values for some fields
- mean time for startDate/endDate fields
- mean duration
- mean latitude/longitude

I might actually have a TypeScript port of LocoKit's Histogram.swift, which could be used for building histograms for visualisations of things like start times, end times, etc (same as how Arc does for common arrival times, leaving times, etc).

It uses the FD rule for deciding the number of bins, given the source data. So it tends to make nicely distributed histograms.

I'll have a hunt around in the code for it. (LocoKit's server side uses it for building the GD activity type models from the UD models).

Ah damn. I just found it, and it's got all the useful bits stripped out and is purely used for combining UD models into GD models, so it doesn't have the FD rule stuff, or histogram creation from arrays of values.

But you can at least see the Swift version here, in the LocoKit repo. That has nice things like FD rule bin counts, and finding the peak bars/ranges (ie most common values), etc.

I'm working on this. Will end up in a separate repository.

I released a rough draft of such a frontend as arc-analysis. It is also available via github pages, but doesn't like to consume the non-https content from arc-data-server so far. So right now it's still required to build and run it yourself.
