Moreover, there is inconsistent information about the attributes of these pathways that affect walking, rolling, and non-motorized travel, as well as a limited understanding of how these paths are connected or disconnected.\n\nThe OpenSidewalks project aims to address this data deficiency by proposing a) a robust data schema (OpenSideWalks or OSW) and b) a comprehensive data tools ecosystem that support collection and maintenance of sidewalk data (which we call the TDEI).\n\nThese resources are designed to give planners, policy makers, and community advocates the data they need to improve pedestrian infrastructure, particularly in historically underserved areas.\n\nCurrent funding is provided by the USDOT/JPO ITS4US program under the University of Washington\u2019s TDEI deployment project.\nOpenSidewalks is led by the Taskar Center for Accessible Technology (TCAT) housed by the Paul G. Allen School for Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "Choose the Datasets page.\nChoose \u201cAll Released Datasets\u201d near the top of the page and then choose \u201cFilter\u201d on the right side of the page, just below the \u201cAll Released Datasets\u201d tab. \nSet the \u201cProject Group\u201d filter to \u201cUS DOT ITS4US\u201d \nSet the Service to any of the 6 demonstration regions/counties that may be of interest to you.
