Acerca de

En BikeMaps amamos tanto andar en bicicleta como a los mapas. Nuestra meta es mapear tu experiencia ciclista para hacer ciclismo más seguro. Tú conoces los puntos problemáticos locales para ciclistas y nosotros queremos que los mapees. Tus conocimientos sobre ciclismo seguro, los peligros e incluso los robos de bicicletas serán analizados utilizando SIG y estadística para identificar los puntos críticos de la seguridad, el riesgo y la delincuencia en el ciclismo. Estamos actualizando constantemente nuestros mapas y tecnología, así que envíanos tus comentarios. Y mantente atento(a) a los mapas de seguridad actualizados generados a partir de TU experiencia de ciclismo.

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Por qué están recolectando esta información?
Solo se recopilan ~ 30% de los datos de colisión de bicicletas y no hay un sistema de informes centralizado. BikeMaps.org es una herramienta única que permite a los ciudadanos construir una base de datos al mapear su experiencia de conducción.

¿Qué van a hacer con los datos?
El equipo de BikeMaps.org analizará los datos para determinar los factores que influyen en la seguridad del ciclismo. También tenemos planes de crear herramientas para ayudar a las personas a planificar rutas más seguras y transferirlas a los planificadores de su área.

¿Cómo pueden los ciudadanos y municipios monitorear áreas de interés para ellos?
Al registrarse e iniciar sesión, podrá rastrear una región de conducción o manejo de interés utilizando la herramienta. Cada vez que inicie sesión, la herramienta lo alertará sobre el mapeo reciente en su región.

Hice clic en Enviar, pero noté que mi pin no está en la ubicación correcta. ¿Cómo puedo arreglarlo?
Envíenos un correo electrónico a info@bikemaps.org con detalles sobre la hora y la ubicación de su informe y lo trasladaremos.

¿Tienes un video tutorial?
Yes! Here’s a link to a video that one of our followers made.

Why does the Strava heat map disappear when I zoom in?
Strava restricts street-level heat maps due to privacy and security concerns. If you are a registered Strava user, you can explore the global heatmap.

¿Cómo puedo involucrarme?
Puedes compartir el sitio web en redes sociales, organizar una Noche de Mapeo o ser voluntario(a) para hacer SIG o desarrollo. Si tienes una tienda de bicicletas o una pequeña empresa, puedes anunciar BikeMaps.org. También estamos buscando más fondos de investigación para desarrollar aún más la tecnología y ampliar el estudio. O tal vez tu grupo tenga datos SIG que pueden mejorar BikeMaps.org.

Why can't I access my geolocation on my mobile device?
If you respond 'allow' to the BikeMaps.org request to use your location but still get a 'user denied geolocation' error, it might be that your privacy settings don't allow your browser itself to access your location. Check if your browser (Firefox, Chrome, Safari) has location permissions in your privacy settings.
