Hey Fella,
Highly recommend that you first look into one bike map outfit called Krebs. The chap who makes this map travels the roads and then follows some elaborate procedure to make his maps. They contain some of the best info. If you have time, and better this product, please check out http://www.krebscycleproducts.com/ Quote:

I was a project coordinator for a bike map project. From your post I'm not sure just how detailed your project is and how it will be published (printed, posted on the internet). The information required to produce a professional looking bike map is far to detailed to go in to in this forum. The process is long and sometimes tedious. It requires cooperation of a number of diverse groups. Any good project should start with a needs analysis. I also found that user focus groups helped me find what the end user is looking for. Check this out and get back to me if I can be of help: http://www.city.toronto.on.ca/parks/maps.htm |
