Transit-weighted heatmaps beat Google Maps for planning real-world meetups.

Strengths
  • •Time-specific calculations (Monday 2pm) account for actual transit schedules.
  • •Moveable markers let you explore different starting points interactively.
Weaknesses
  • •Limited to cities with sufficient transit data in OpenStreetMap.
  • •No integration with calendar apps or meeting invitation workflows.

Post Description

Hello!

I built a map that generates a heatmap of the most convenient meeting spots between several people, based on public transit travel times.

Move the markers anywhere in the map; all cities with sufficient transit data are supported!
