In Europe we often accept pretty grave restrictions of our liberty like the UK's Online Safety Act, which would never fly in the US, and we do so without much public comment.

On the other side of things, organisations in the US happily expose datasets like this one, which would give a most EU Data Protection Officers a heart attack, and nobody bats an eyelid.

* Limitations *

The data only contains the start and end station for each trip, but does not contain the full path. Route geometries are computed for each (start station, end station) pair using the shortest path from OSRM.

This means that the computed routes are directionally correct but inexact. Trips that start and end at the same station are filtered out since the route geometry is ambiguous.

Cool visualization.

Do you find the OSRM shortest path routes probable for bikes? Not living in NYC, I expected pretty different paths. Say the "Hudson River Greenway" or whatever that's called.

I’m working with subway data, particularly the A subway line, 32 mi long with about 2million trips over 6 months across 66 stations. Trying to train a convlstm to learn the spatiotemporal propagation of train headways.
