sheffield_cycle_data

The goal of sheffield_cycle_data is to get started with key datasets on cycling, infrastructure, behaviour and maybe more.

Set-up and packages

There are a number of packages that can help get transport (including cycling) data. Install them as follows:

install.packages("remotes")
#> Installing package into '/home/robin/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.1'
#> (as 'lib' is unspecified)
remotes::install_cran(c("pct", "osmextract", "osmdata", "stats19", "tidyverse", "tmap", "skimr"))
#> Skipping install of 'pct' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (0.9.3) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'osmextract' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (0.4.0) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'osmdata' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (0.1.9) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'stats19' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (2.0.0) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'tidyverse' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (1.3.1) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'tmap' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (3.3-3) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation
#> Skipping install of 'skimr' from a cran remote, the SHA1 (2.1.4) has not changed since last install.
#>   Use `force = TRUE` to force installation

You can load them as follows:

library(pct)
library(stats19)
library(tidyverse)
library(tmap)
# tmap_mode("view") # uncomment this for interactive maps
tmap_mode("plot")
#> tmap mode set to plotting

Cycling behaviour and potential

# https://github.com/npct/pct-outputs-regional-notR/blob/master/commute/lsoa/south-yorkshire/rnet_full.geojson
cycle_trips_network_estimates = get_pct_rnet(region = "south-yorkshire")
zones = get_pct_zones("south-yorkshire")

You can plot this data in a static map as follows:

zones %>% 
  select(lad_name) %>% 
  plot()
cycle_trips_network_estimates %>%
  select(dutch_slc) %>% 
  plot()

Let’s subset the data representing Sheffield.

zones_sheffield = zones %>% 
  filter(lad_name == "Sheffield")
rnet_sheffield = cycle_trips_network_estimates[zones_sheffield, ]
rnet_sheffield %>% 
  tm_shape() +
  tm_lines(lwd = "ebike_slc", scale = 9)
#> Legend labels were too wide. Therefore, legend.text.size has been set to 0.54. Increase legend.width (argument of tm_layout) to make the legend wider and therefore the labels larger.

Getting the infrastructure data

extra_tags = c("maxspeed", "bicycle")
osm_data_region = osmextract::oe_get_network(place = "south yorkshire", mode = "cycling", extra_tags = extra_tags)
#> The input place was matched with: South Yorkshire

osm_cycleways = osm_sheffield %>% 
  filter(highway == "cycleway")
qtm(osm_cycleways)

To save the output you can use the st_write() function from the sf package:

sf::st_write(obj = osm_cycleways, "osm_cycleways.geojson")

You can then load the object in QGIS.
