Скачать или смотреть Bicycle Stress Level Mapping—How Does Your Network Measure Up?

A fresh way to map bicycle routes: Traditional bike maps don’t always tell the whole story. This practical session will teach you a different way to map routes, and how clients and communities can benefit.

Why stress about stress maps? Typical bike maps don't convey the comfort of routes or how far a bicyclist can ride until encountering a high-stress location. To attract new riders – many of whom are only willing to ride on routes they perceive as comfortable and low stress – we need maps and tools to communicate that information. Bicycle stress level maps represent a highly effective, visual means to encourage cycling for all ages and abilities and to identify high-stress segments where bikeway upgrades are needed. This session will explain the basics of stress level mapping, how to apply it using available data, and how it can contribute to a network analysis.
