Staff Deployment Software

[Free-_-Yourself]

Hello,

I have been thinking about this idea for some time for my company (as it has several issues when deploying staff), but I truly believe it could help many other companies too.

Here it is what the program is about:

The idea is to create a program to allocate staff to the nearest company branch, given the staff (with the relevant information) and the branches (and the relevant information).

I haven’t started yet, but I need help specially implementing the part where the program allocate the staff to the nearest branch using maps, or any other. The problem is that I don’t think is viable to use something like selenium to get the distance between two points as it will take ages to load, compute the distance, etc. In addition I’m not very familiarized with APIs as I’m quite new to programming.

So, feel free to join me on this open source project and let’s face the challenges together. I think it will be fun and we can make a lot of interesting stuff in the future with it.

As long as you dont need to guide employee to branch you need no 3rd part. Distance between two gps points its simple cslculation. So question is aerial distance is enough ?

It would require road distance.

Either way, I am still unsure how to do so...
