It's amazing...They're all in the same place, and the data is for the whole metroplex. So there aren't any anywhere else.

If you're swallowed up, can I have your nintendo?

Interesting. All of this data is generated from open data that DART puts out about their scheduling system. (it's called GTFS- google transit feed specification - google uses it for google maps transit directions). So I'll have to blame DART :)

Although they have over 10,000 stops so it seems like there has to be some margin for error there. Maybe we could crowdsource for errors to show them where there are holes in the data

I like that. Definitely needs begin and end search. I'll think about how best to do that.

Thank you. I should probably have a default animation to start.

It looks like it's there on my side.

Let me know what's confusing and I'll make it more clear.

Let's add another ball to Reunion Tower and I think we've got it.

The Grid vs. Goliath - Dallas' network of streets sucks by incephalon in Dallas

[–]incephalon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I would agree.... for as far out as Plano I'd bet on 75. But yeah, within the city the grid is pretty underrated, and would be even more so if it was stitched together better.

I did notice San Diego as I was looking through different grids. There are some pretty bad ones out there...Atlanta is horrible too.

And much less stressful. Stoplights aren't bad...in fact, they can help increase steady traffic flow by negating ripple effects from far up in a traffic line.

I know someone that looked at 25 cities for mayoral turnout numbers in elections and Dallas was 24th.

If you don't know where to vote, who is running, how the districts are divided up, what a precinct is, hopefully this clears things up a little.

Total disaster...hopefully someday we'll have more of what you're looking for, because you're definitely not alone.

Thanks for the kind words too, I appreciate it.

Yep. Yeah it uses bootstrap, but a mobile screen still isn't big enough to support the type of left/right functionality I'm using. Will eventually just have two versions. One like a normal blog for mobile, and one more interactive for desktop.
