Thanks for showing interest in this @suzannemaas. If you have any follow-up thoughts, e.g. in terms of other case study datasets or aspects of routing (e.g. for quietness or to save energy), please let us know here.
Could possibly use my opentripplanner package which does hilliness https://docs.ropensci.org/opentripplanner/
unfortunatly I have to go, but theirs is lots of documentation on the website
Hello, are the gradient_segments also hand-manufactured? Or are they true to reality?
Good question. They are pretty close to reality I think. They are from the CycleStreets.net routing service.
Heads-up @mncosta they were generated by reproducible code in the code
folder (code/generate-routes.R
) using the cyclestreets
R package that is an interface to the CycleStreet web API. Watch out though, some (very high gradients on short sections) may not be reliable. See here for details: https://github.com/Robinlovelace/cyclestreets/issues/14#
