The OpenSidewalks project promotes equity in pedestrian routes by making sidewalks first-class members of an open data transportation network. Collecting open sidewalk information will support a variety of use cases and downstream activities, including addressing the informational gap for pedestrians of all abilities, automated trip planning customized to individual abilities, and furnishing rich analytic tools for data-driven urban planning. Access to safe pedestrian routes is a critical challenge if we are to steward healthy, inclusive, and resilient cities around the globe. OpenSidewalks is an initiative of the Taskar Center for Accessible Technology in partnership with Urban@UW & FeetFirst, cosponsored by eScience Institute at the University of Washington.
