2. In Germany the police registers an increasing number of domestic burglaries, the detection rate is very low. At the same time, the number of violent crimes decreased. This map shows the situation of your region.

3. On Mapbox you can see how to convert live weather data into maps that update in real-time.

4. Beacons are simple devices that send one-way Bluetooth low energy (BLE) signals. These signals can be read by nearby Bluetooth-enabled devices. Google developed a beacon platform that enables contextual experiences for your users through interactions with BLE beacons.
