Data courtesy MapQuest and OpenStreetMap CC-BY-SA, the City and County of San Francisco, and Bay Area Rapid Transit This is an overlay of the transit and walking trip plans generated by OpenTripPlanner from Powell and Market to every other intersection in San Francisco, after Eric Fischer’s map of walking routes to every intersection in San Francisco. It brings out the transit routes but also shows well-used walking routes. The lines do not vary in width (don’t let Market Street fool you, it’s actually several lines—BART, MUNI rail in 2 directions, Muni bus, walking—very near each other).

Here’s another visualization of the data used in the previous post; I made the lines a lot finer, so the noise is less visible. It’s easier than ever to see the Silver Line. I classed the data manually this time.

Update 2011-11-12 8:21 -0800: I just posted a visualization I like better. The Internet has been abuzz the past week regarding transit speed maps. It seems to have been spurred by a post on Bostongraphy, which was inspired by many of the amazing visualizations produced by Eric Fischer, especially this one. Indeed, this blog has gotten a fair bit of traffic itself, because Andy Woodruff of Bostonography used my avl2postgis project to retrieve the data.
