Progress update:
(June 26)
I’m back in town now after a little trip to New York. Off to DAAP shortly to test-print/color-check some things I was playing with on the train.
I decided that one of the inset maps will show regional trails between Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Xenia, etc. Another will detail elevation, and a third will highlight transit and retail areas. I’ve also been riding all around the city, which is much more tiring and time-consuming than I had expected, looking for speed limit signs and finding water fountains. If anyone knows of any fountains on the west side outside of Mt. Echo park, you could save me some time by telling me about them!
The most difficult part has been working on my script to identify dead-ends in OpenStreetMap data, but that’s coming along too.

I’ll try and post some screenshots here later this week as I develop things I feel ready sharing!
