mastodon 4.7.3I try to help with the climate crisis. Building Bike Streets for cycling around US cities and The Ned Workshop for helping people be creative.
Bike Streets processes one @openstreetmap@en.osm.town diff per minute resulting in 115 updates per day to internal Low-Stress edges. Read about how applying map matching via the Viterbi algorithm to a hidden Markov model (HMM) helped reduce the load on our local Network Editors by ~70%.

I was lucky to be able to attend the @TheWarOnCars@mastodon.social book release event in Seattle this week. Amped to keep helping provide tools for folks to ride around cities and build low-stress routes with the Bike Streets app.

To run the the Bike Streets (non-OSS, generally, but free in the US) routing engine for the entire US requires a pipeline of servers to process the US OSM data export and then a $336/mo server to have enough RAM to run the OSRM routing server.
