📢 New paper: A participatory mapping approach to capturing perceived walkability
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.2024.104133
🖌️ Perceived walkability in Sydney collected by 'spraypainting', because who needs polygons?
🚶 Compared results to a previously published walkability index
🗺️ Method, with comments, can capture rich knowledge about walkable areas and streets, and reveal gaps in walkability models
Last paper out from my PhD, very happy to see it in print.

@jakecoppinger Check out https://sydney.colouringaustralia.org/view/street-context/1421467 which uses (a version of) WalkTHERE too.
As mentioned to Christian I'm in the process of learning how to host interactive maps myself but not ready yet!
Can also send you data, or you can in theory rerun it using the code on Github :)
