[OSM-talk] differences in how OpenCycleMap renders bicycle parking

[Hillsman, Edward]

Hi Shaun,

 

That makes sense. Thanks for the explanation. We do have areas here with
huge numbers of bicycle spaces, but the ones I had used for testing
aren't among them.

 

I agree, the heat map would be more useful. Can you point me to
resources for making such a map from OSM data?

particularly useful when the cycle parking was mapped in detail.
