Minimum Radius Calculator for Geographical Coordinates

This tool calculates the minimum radius that can encompass all given geographical coordinates provided by the user in a CSV file.

🔍 Overview

The application is designed to find the smallest possible circle that contains all points (latitude and longitude pairs) on a map. It’s useful for:

• Estimating the spatial footprint of a dataset
• Determining geofencing boundaries
• Visualizing coverage zones

📥 Input Format

The tool expects a CSV file contained explicitly named columns: Latitude, Longitude

Each row must represent a valid geographical coordinate:

• Latitude in decimal degrees (e.g., 34.0522)
• Longitude in decimal degrees (e.g., -118.2437)

Example:

Latitude,Longitude
34.0522,-118.2437
36.7783,-119.4179
37.7749,-122.4194

Future Enhancements

• Handle files where latitude and longitude columns use different or unexpected names (e.g., lat, lng, geo_lat).
• Interactive 3D Map Visualization
• Enable drag-and-drop CSV upload through a web interface with instant feedback.
• Accept more geographic data formats beyond CSV.
