To prioritize sidewalk funding, it's useful to know where there's pedestrian demand. Walk Potential calculates this by analyzing how many of 20 different categories of amenities are within a 10-minute walk.

I'm in the process of releasing Walk Potential as a plugin for the QGIS, a free desktop QGIS app. This will make it easier for people to try it out and use.
