This project showcases an innovative approach to visualizing pedestrian mapping quality in OpenStreetMap (OSM) data using QGIS and Felt. The creator Martijn Van Exel developed a method to calculate a "quality index" based on the ratio of pedestrian infrastructure to total road network length, displayed in visually appealing hexagonal grids. By leveraging open-source tools and Felt’s user-friendly platform, the project demonstrates how complex spatial analysis can be transformed into interactive, easily shareable maps for urban planning and pedestrian infrastructure assessment.
