A/B Street is an open-source traffic simulator that lets you edit roads and intersections, based on OpenStreetMap data. But to even do that, first we have to geometrically represent the transportation network in great detail. This is a second deep-dive into how things work.

Years back as OSM was fading and the v1.0 of mapbox started rolling out my pedestrian view of the space was that we were seeing the endgame unfold It's insane to see the levels of depth still to plunge - this is incredible documentation and a very cool project PS - I'd upvote twice if I could for incorporate of cthulhu mythos!

Just this morning I came across new work from the Berlin OSM community: https://supaplexosm.github.io/strassenraumkarte-neukoelln/?m... The end-game isn't in sight. We (data consumers of OSM) are just getting started.

Supaplex did supplement their map with open data from the municipality though for the street outlines as far as I understand (I've asked), so it's not 100% OpenStreetMap data used there. Totally awesome and inspiring nonetheless though.
