Hi Reid. Just wondering if/when this project will expand outside Minnesota? Also, and I haven't really been following this thread, how does it integrate with OSM, and could it integrate better? Seems a pity to collect information twice... Steve ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

I'm the project leader for Cyclopath, and a Google Alert for that search term led me to this thread. Cyclopath does do subjective routing, in two ways. First, cyclists can rate the bikeability of roads and trails on a block-by-block basis, and these preferences are taken into account when routing. Second, when you request a route, you can give requirements in terms of bikeability vs. distance and which tags you prefer and disprefer. I believe this is the same subjective-over-objective philosophy another commenter in this thread recommended. We also support a number of annotations within the map: collaboratively edited notes and tags (where tags are the traditional definition: words or phrases that are attached to a map feature), bikeability ratings, and we recently added discussions to the map. Cyclopath is a research project and has led to several well-received papers in the human-computer interaction and collaborative systems domains. See http://reidster.net/papers.html for more. Anyway, I mostly wanted to say hi and let you all know we are here. If you have any questions, ask and I will reply here on the list. Thanks!
