London street accessibility data

Just a quick note about our progress: we've recently made some significant advances to the data analysis software and have been able to calculate street integration (which is correlated to pedestrian/vehicle traffic) for London and other GB regions using Open Street Map. In the image below the red roads are supposedly the busiest.


Even though the algorithm is still being improved we can already start to pick out the main arterial routes which is encouraging (the algorithm doesn't know about the size of roads, just which ones are connected to each other). It is also promising that we can process such as large data set.
