    changed the TTC Metropass Fare Media Sellers Dataroom license to cc_by_nc

    Doesn't this rule out any paid mobile apps from using the data?

    x
    magdmartin magdmartin

    this might. But most of the application (android) have a free and paid version. I need to check that for apple market.

    So only the free versions can use the data?

    nice one ... really close to what I did. What does the percentage mean next to each indicators?

    x
    dataremixed dataremixed

    Hi - sorry for the delay in responding! The % next to the indicators is the weight (out of 100%) assigned to that particular category. Hope this makes sense and thanks for commenting!

    got a buzzdata / TTC project in mind. I might need some programming skills (using buzzdata API to update the table). Interested?

    haz haz

    Definitely! I've only done things in python so far though...

    I have a project happening already so my hands are full, but eventually I do want to analyse most common times of week/day/year and locations to get a parking ticket ...

    From the query page? Weird...one sec.

    haz haz

    Fixed (it happens when you submit once, and then go back to do it again).

    x
    haz haz

    Actually unfixed (but noted). I'm keeping the site unchanged (warts and all) for now until I can confirm that bug-fixes with a changelog are permitted.

    x
    haz haz

    I've fixed and noted the change giving you credit ( thecity4.me/changelog ). Thanks for spotting it!

    I like the way you recompute the weather score. I wish I had time to add this to my viz.

    x
    eivindw eivindw

    Thanks! :) At first, I had some trouble trying to think of what weather is "best" - but the scale itself really says it all: it's not so much about rewarding good weather as it is penalizing the bad.. ;)

    I took a look at your stuff too, and I quite like the idea of personalizing the final output - especially when my model could easily have been extended to support that too... But ah well, you live and you learn! Next time...

    I wanted to add an other panel so the 'user' can set the min / max temp and sunshine is looking for, but (1) no time to compute this on my end and (2) the interface will look too messy and complex with this on the top.

    So using my app, what's your best city? Still the same?

    I actually ended up with Melbourne, but Toronto and Vancouver were close second and third. They all sounds like great places, to be honest..

    I'm quite fond of Oslo, even if it doesn't quite measure up in this dataset. I expect it's simply too small, cool and expensive to be top tier.

    nice combination of data set. I'm impress! Could you share your viz as an attachment, it is pretty hard to see it properly through buzzdata interface.
