NEXT STEP: We need to determine how many companies we want in each circle, and then we can begin running the enclosing circle algorithm on the city data.
The Top 50 cities with the maximum number of companies in any given year are:'Santa Monica', 'Nashville', 'Santa Clara', 'Chicago', 'Philadelphia', 'Denver', 'Dallas', 'Burlington', 'San Francisco', 'San Mateo', 'Milpitas', 'Boulder', 'Bellevue', 'Herndon', 'Pittsburgh', 'Mountain View', 'San Diego', 'Fremont', 'Ann Arbor', 'Irvine', 'Brooklyn', 'Durham', 'Los Angeles', 'Atlanta', 'Alpharetta', 'Menlo Park', 'Rockville', 'San Jose', 'Lexington', 'Saint Louis', 'Sunnyvale', 'Palo Alto', 'Richardson', 'Redwood City', 'Austin', 'Waltham', 'Baltimore', 'Cupertino', 'Houston', 'Cambridge', 'Boston', 'Washington', 'Minneapolis', 'Pleasanton', 'New York', 'Cleveland', 'South San Francisco', 'Portland', 'Seattle'. These were determined by the decide_cities.py script located in: E:\McNair\Projects\Accelerators\EnclosingCircle
The final data of cities at a given year and their minimized circles can be found at:
