    City data repository for mapnificent.net

    This is awesome - https://www.mapnificent.net/ is a similar project (also open source). Might be cool to collaborate on data sources?

    Public-transit travel time map

    Not sure if something like this exists yet, but certainly do-able within my implementation.

    For example, when choosing the best route, it penalizes every transfer by 120 seconds [1]. Therefore, a route that takes 2 minutes longer is equivalent to one transfer.

    It'd be cool to have a tool where you can dynamically change these settings, and maybe even have different transfer penalties depending on if you're transferring inside a station vs walking outside.

    Transportation planning and traffic simulation software for creating cities friendlier to walking, biking, and public transit

    Super awesome! I like how you just color roads to show time. When you calculate polygons to try and cover the whole area in some 5-10 minute bucket, you can wind up with all sorts of odd holes far away from roads. Keep it simple.
