For urban planners, transportation advocates and spatial analysts,

I'm making progress on packaging a number of algorithms useful for for building a heatmap useful for complex priority calculations. I developed these tools for figuring out the optimal location to fund sidewalks where demand was high and safety benefits would be maximal.

The toolkit is described more here:

In progress is #QGIS plugin version with GUIs for easy use and customization.
