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
