📊 Key Concepts

Density Score

A metric that combines distance, time, and place count to measure trip complexity.

• Formula: (distance_km × 5 + time_hours × 10) ÷ place_count
• Range: 0-100+ (typically 10-60 for real trips)
• Purpose: Objective measure of trip complexity

Density Levels

• Low (<20): Easy self-planning
• Moderate (20-35): Tour optional
• High (35-50): Tour recommended
• Very High (≥50): Tour highly recommended

Decision Factors

Multiple factors that influence the recommendation:

1. Density score (primary)
2. Total distance
3. Time commitment
4. Group size
5. Place count
6. Activity type

Debug Info

Comprehensive information explaining the recommendation:

• Daily metrics for each day
• Overall trip metrics
• Decision factors with reasoning
• Recommendation explanation
