Decision Surfaces

Loop data includes decision surfaces to help you make recommendations:

Loop Selection Logic

// Pseudo-code for recommending a loop
function selectLoop(userPreferences, loops) {
  return loops
    .filter(loop => {
      // Check constraints
      if (userPreferences.hasDog && !loop.constraints.dog_friendly) return false;
      if (userPreferences.hasKids && !loop.constraints.kid_friendly) return false;
      if (userPreferences.hasRV && !loop.constraints.rv_safe) return false;

      // Check duration
      if (userPreferences.maxDays < loop.logistics.estimated_days) return false;

      return true;
    })
    .sort((a, b) => {
      // Prioritize loops that match use_this_when
      const aScore = matchScore(a.use_this_when, userPreferences);
      const bScore = matchScore(b.use_this_when, userPreferences);
      return bScore - aScore;
    });
}
