clustering a set of coordinates based on their distance with each other

Viewed 39

I am trying to make a cluster of sites which are closer to each other. I have coordinates of the sites and have generated their distance matrix also. I earlier used google or tools to generate optimized routes but I rather need to cluster the sites in groups. Find below the sample distance matrix.

data['distance_matrix'] = [
    [
        0, 548, 776, 696, 582, 274, 502, 194, 308, 194, 536, 502, 388, 354,
        468, 776, 662
    ],

        536, 194, 798, 0
    ],

Need some suggestions to solve this problem. I am using python 3 and used or tools earlier to generate routes.
