Online Bike Routing Tool

Cyclopath and Cycloplan: collaborative bicycle planning and routing
Provided by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials

Loren Terveen, associate professor of computer science and engineering, 
and James Andrew of the Metropolitan Council discussed how an online 
routing tool for bicyclists has been enhanced for transportation planners and engineers.

Cyclopath, a geowiki developed by a team of University of Minnesota researchers, 
is an open content routing and social media tool for bicyclists. Users can search 
for bicycle routes, share notes about roads and trails, enter tags about special 
locations, and edit route maps by filling in missing or unofficial trails.
