FixBikeNet 0.6.0 documentation

The Python package fixbikenet identifies the most important gaps to fill in a city’s bicycle network. It is hosted on Github, part of BikeNetKit.

The software downloads and pre-processes data from OpenStreetMap, identifies the gaps, saves the results, creates plots and videos. The source code builds on the code from the research paper Automated Detection of Missing Links in Bicycle Networks.
