Sidewalk Tagathon: Enhancing OSM for Senior Walkability
This time, we will map smoothness and surface tags within the Mannheim area. This mapping effort will contribute to delivering the data needed for our ongoing Silver Ways project.
Silver Ways is a project aiming to improve the mobility of senior citizens by developing an empirically informed and validated routing system tailored to their needs. The age-friendly Silver Ways are used to create a 15-Minute Neighborhood Index, emphasizing neighborhoods where critical amenities are accessible within a short walk specifically along routes that are safe, comfortable, and convenient for older individuals.
