AgentMaps is a Javascript library for building and visualizing dynamic social systems on maps. It is based on the Leaflet interactive mapping library. Given a neighborhood, AgentMaps lets you quickly and easily:
- Build units along the streets.
- Spawn agents onto the map.
- Schedule them to move between places on the map.
- Change their appearance and properties.
AgentMaps lets you turn this:
into something like this:
You can install it via npm (npm install agentmaps
) and bundle it yourself, or you can get a premade bundle here to include directly in a webpage.
You'll need to include Leaflet separately.
Docs for people who want to use AgentMaps are available here.
Docs people who want to understand its internals are here.
A basic walkthrough for creating an AgentMaps simulation can be found here.
Simple: Shows all the different ways agents can travel around a map.
Epidemic: Agents commute between different parts of a neighborhood while an infection spreads between them.
You can find the corresponding code under /demos in the gh-pages branch here.
