 ===== Project =====
-The idea is to map public transportation flows in Switzerland. The focus is on visualizing the network of SBB CFF (trains, S-Bahn).
+The idea is to map public transportation flows in Switzerland. The focus is on visualizing the network of SBB CFF (trains, S-Bahn). This visualization was later animated and published by the NZZ: [[http://www.nzz.ch/aktuell/inland-sommerserie-schweizer-karten-interaktiv/sbb-fahrplan-pulsierender-verkehr-1.18129777|Die Eisenbahn, die nie ganz schläft]].
 ===== Purpose of the project  =====
@@ Line 12: / Line 17: @@
-===== The following parameters were of interest for us =====
-Time
-  * Departure
-  * Arrival
-  * Speed: average speed and speed changes on a train’s track
-Track
-  * A train’s track on the map
-  * Stops per track
-Train capacity
-  * Degree of capacity utilized (is the train crowded or not?)
-  * Length of trains => number of passengers
-Stations
-  * Degree of tracks occupied (per hour, per day)
-  * Stations as intersections (how important is a station for the network?)
-Train types
-  * Different types: IC, S-Bahn, Interregio etc.
-  * Name of a specific train (IC123)
-Delays
-  * Per train
-  * Per track
-Waiting times of trains in a station

 ===== Data =====
-swisstrains (data is a bit difficult to access)
+swisstrains. The data consists of train-schedules and a mapping from single trains to tracks on a map. As the track-data has been traced from Google Imagery we don't consider this data Opendata. Getting the tracks from OpenStreetmap would be a nice project for another Hackday.
