| # Proximity & Buffer Analyzer | |
| An interactive computational tool designed for urban studies, contemporary sociology, environmental justice, and public policy to audit spatial equity, food deserts, or environmental exposure. | |
| ### Features | |
| 1. **Haversine Distance Calculations**: Computes exact geodesic great-circle distances between census tracts and targeted features on the earth's surface. | |
| 2. **Equity Auditing Engine**: Automatically parses all numerical demographic attributes and compares their average values inside vs. outside radial buffer zones. | |
| 3. **Interactive Buffers Map**: Renders an interactive Leaflet map featuring transparent circular buffer overlays, asset/hazard markers, and color-coded census centroids. | |
| 4. **Disparity Calculations**: Identifies relative percentage differences for income, race, education, or other attributes to detect structural spatial inequalities. | |
