A visualization of all roads within any city

How it is made?

The data is fetched from OpenStreetMap using overpass-turbo API . While that API is free (as long as you follow ODbL licenses), it can be rate-limited and sometimes it slow. After all we are downloading thousands of roads within an area!

To improve the performance of download, I indexed ~3,000 cities with populating larger than 100,000 people and stored into a very simple protobuf format. The cities are stored into a cache in this github repository .

The name resolution is done by nominatim - for any query that you type into the search box it returns list of area ids. I check for the area id in my list of cached cities first, and fallback to overpass-turbo if area is not present in cache.

Limitations

The rendering of the city is limited by the browser and video card memory capacity. I was able to render Seattle roads without a hiccup on a very old samsung phone, though when I tried Tokyo (with 1.4m segments) the phone was very slow.

Selecting area that has millions of roads (e.g. a Washington state) may cause the page to crash even on a powerful device.

Luckily, most of the cities can be rendered without problems, resulting in a beautiful art.

Support

If you like this work and want to use it in your projects - you are more than welcome to do so!

Please let me know how it goes. You can also sponsor my projects here - your funds would be dedicated to more awesome and free data visualizations.

数据压缩导论

萨尤得 / 2009-2 / 99.00元

《数据压缩导论(英文版·第3版)》是数据压缩方面的经典著作,介绍了各种类型的压缩模式。书中首先介绍了基本压缩方法(包括无损压缩和有损压缩)中涉及的数学知识,为常见的压缩形式打牢了信息论基础,然后从无损压缩体制开始,依次讲述了霍夫曼编码、算术编码以及字典编码技术等,对于有损压缩,还讨论了使用量化的模式,描述了标量、矢量以及微分编码和分形压缩技术,最后重点介绍了视频加密。《数据压缩导论(英文版·第3版......一起来看看 《数据压缩导论》 这本书的介绍吧!
