If you want to run all the streets in your city, there's loads of us using https://citystrides.com https://citystrides.com to track how many streets we've run (not affiliated, just a happy subscriber).
It's also a handy way of finding ways to contribute to OpenStreetMaps, you discover lots of little details that isn't mapped correctly on these runs.
I'm at a depressing 83 of 2655 streets (3.13%) in Copenhagen, Denmark. But at a whopping 86 of 446 streets (19.28%) in Malvern, England!
- GrayShade 4y agoI made something similar for myself. I probably wouldn't have tried it had I known about CityStrides or other apps. https://blog.dend.ro/mapping-my-walks-osrm-rust/ https://blog.dend.ro/mapping-my-walks-osrm-rust/
- raybb 4y agoWhat kind of details have you found go not be mapped correctly? It seems a bit difficult to go from running around go looking at a map and seeing what doesn't match. I like editing OSM after walking around and area but maybe I'll try running!
- kawsper 4y agoI usually plan my routes a bit before I run, so I'm aware of what streets I am supposed to be running. I've discovered a street that wasn't mapped at all on OSM (Tanglewood Heights, Malvern), I've discovered a gated community with no public access that were marked as public (Danebury Park, Malvern), and there was another parking lot/street I couldn't access because it was behind gates. I update the details on OSM, and then CityStrides updates their data sometime later.
- matsemann 4y agoAs someone doing the same but for biking on https://wandrer.earth/ https://wandrer.earth/ It supports downloading a "map" of everything I haven't done, and then on my Garmin unit I can use that as an overlay on the map. Thus when I'm out and around I can try all sideroads showing as un-biked. Then I often find streets that OSM think are bikeable, but really are not. Either behind gates, a highway etc. And fixing this makes it better for everyone.
- ibdf 4y agoIs there anything like citystrides but for biking?
- JeromeLon 4y agoCan you get any taste of the supporter features before paying? I opened an account, got 60 activities imported from Strava, I can see them individually from citystrides, but clicking on one of the "Lifemap" buttons just zooms out, and shows nothing on the map.
