Working my way through the code trying to understand it. Added section headers, broke code into chunks, moved a couple of lines, etc.

## Routes for walking to school
|
|
This script generates maps to analyze the potential walking routes for students to their school.
|
|
|
|
- I excluded the addresses of the students from the repository.
|
|
- The actual route generation is done with OSRM, I run it locally in a docker container.
|
|
- The basemap is pulled from Stadia Maps. The usage of the script is well within the free tier, you'll need an API key from them.
|
|
|
|
## Data sources
|
|
- School location data is from: https://data-wi-dpi.opendata.arcgis.com/
|
|
- Madison Bike Level of Traffic Stress is from: https://data-cityofmadison.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/cityofmadison::bike-lts/explore
|
|
- Student addresses provided by school.
|
|
|
|
## Example figures
|
|
This script will generate a few figures:
|
|
### A heatmap of student addresses:
|
|

|
|
|
|
### A map of all the walking routes within the walk boundary:
|
|

|
|
|
|
### A map of those routes colored by the level of traffic stress to bike
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Using make
|
|
The command `make route_analysis` will run *route_analysis.Rmd* which
|
|
is an R markdown file containing the original R script *route_analysis.R*
|
|
|
|
## Misc.
|

- [Bike Level of Traffic Stress (LTS)](https://www.dvrpc.org/webmaps/bike-lts/analysis/)
