An interesting app, which Bob Lang and Brendan Conway told me about. It visualises the orientation of streets at any location.What is the main #streetorientation of your settlement? Brilliant app works all over the world using street network maps @GIS4Schools @geogologue @WhitstableLive #python Clever stuff by @mourner inspired by @VizualStatistix + @gboeing via @undertheraedar https://t.co/eJ5m4QUZS5 pic.twitter.com/sOxTKP7HYa— BC (@mildthing99) July 17, 2018
I had a play, and it's an interesting result, although the granularity of zoom means that if you zoom out to the the whole of Norwich, for example, you essentially get streets from every sort of direction and no preferred orientation...
