This is a bit of a long shot, but if there are any developers out there interested in mapping who would be willing to spend a bit of time helping a novice (me) out in some experiments to improve UX in web apps for sustainable transport planning, please get in touch.

@aeischeid OK great! Well I'm just getting going so any input appreciated. Good news, got a basic map up and running! https://cruse-bike.github.io/cruse/ However, got an issue that I cannot see how to resolve: the geocoding bar is in the wrong place. Any ideas? Have tried everything I can think of to fix it including in the <style> section.

@mattlehrer Hey Matt, more detailed answer now at my desk. We're working with MapLibre via svelte-maplibre. Current issue seems to be a bit of a fiddly one: search bar freezes after flying to place name as shown in video and described in this issue: https://github.com/cruse-bike/cruse/issues/8 Contributions welcome and happy to chat over.

New section on contraction hierarchies and traffic assignment just added to Geocomputation with R 🎉
In preparation for the 2nd Edition 🚀 #gischat #DataScience #Geocompx

I'm thinking about porting functionality in the {stats19} #rstats package into #Python and possibly other languages. Are you an #OpenSource developer with an interest in #DataScience for policy, sustainability + good? If so please check this issue and let us know your thoughts on taking this project to the next level 🚀 https://github.com/ropensci/stats19/issues/230
@rOpenSci @mszll + all any thoughts on best practices welcome also 🙏

@luis_de_sousa Thanks for the encouragement, although your comment does come across as a bit snide and dismissive. #rstats is a great language. #Python is a great language. As @martinfleis and others have said, this kind of comment isn't helpful. Constructive comments/suggestions v. welcome.

@luis_de_sousa I get that you don't like R. It really is great if you want to get stuff done with data quickly. Just look at all the amazing things happening in the #rstats posts. I don't know why you would rubbish an entire language and #opensource community. Together we are stronger, collaboration between communities not competition requires mutual respect. Positivity can go a long way.

@luis_de_sousa read your comments. Thanks for info and links. Be aware that your comments to a post asking for help come across as negative. Read-up on how to be a good digital citizen: https://edu.gcfglobal.org/en/communicationskills/being-a-good-digital-citizen/1/

The package {stats19}, which provides analysis-ready road traffic casualty data from the Department for Transport, has just hit 3.0.2. See https://docs.ropensci.org/stats19/ and install the latest version with
install.packages("stats19")

My first ever map for the #30DayMapChallenge: location data of 141k road traffic fatalities in Great Britain, 1979-2022. Spot the coordinate reference issues! Belated day 1: points. #geocompx

For anyone interested, the map is fully reproducible with open data and #OpenSource code. See here to give it a spin! https://github.com/Robinlovelace/30mapchallenge2023/blob/main/day1-points.md

How do we get the complement (don't know the correct term so I'm borrowing from set theory) of a shapefile within a bounding box in #rstats? I want the stuff outside the shapefile's boundaries but within its extent.

Would appreciate any help!

robinlovelace,
@robinlovelace@fosstodon.org avatar

@terence within st polygon of the bonding box? Reproducible example will help get more precise and tested answers!

In the area of open tools for transport planning Transport for the North are going great guns. Their CAF.space #Python package provides a solid basis for spatial joins. Great to see modular and tested tools developed in the public sector. See more and get involved here: https://github.com/Transport-for-the-North

Great heard from Anastassia Vybornova on BikeDNA, a new #opensource tool for assessing cycle network datasets. Give it a spin here: https://github.com/anerv/BikeDNA Great content and ideas about the future of transport modelling at #ModellingWorld

How do we reduce car dependency? The #opensource TrafRed tool by Crispin Cooper provides an evidence-based way to explore the impacts of different sets of changes, with a view to generating a 20%+ reduction in car km driven. Check out source code + interactive app here: https://github.com/fiftysevendegreesofrad/TrafRed

Anyone wanting to use their toots for public communication of science/tech/research, you might want to include public posts in search results. And for anyone who likes the idea of #socialmedia for good, lot's of people in the #fediverse I imagine! Context: https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/111312362135573139

Shout-out to experienced people out there: I've just updated the README of our Geocomputation with Python book and want to get a sanity check. Is this good advice? Thanks to authors @michaeldorman84, @underdarkGIS and @nowosad it's coming together! 🙏 https://github.com/geocompx/geocompy/pull/204

@martinfleis heads-up I've added a new workflow in this PR: https://github.com/geocompx/geocompy/pull/208

Seem OK to you? Thanks and sorry for tagging you loads, learning as I go..
