I’ve learned more context on the #OpenStreetMap forum:

From what I have heared through connections to the city planning department: I think they also fear that people will be able see how bad some intersections are actually for pedestrians. Local residents could then see the data and demand change now that it is fact that the crossing time is too short or the waiting time too long. Not all people in the City Management like the idea to share this data publicly, as still a lot in there like to make life for cars easier. It is a pretty political prob...
Out of curiosity: for those who do #geospatial #datascience, how common is it to use open-source #GIS software like #QGIS instead of #ArcGIS, etc.

Their experience and commitment to open geospatial solutions make them a fantastic addition to our sponsor community.

Does anyone know anyone in the City of #Vienna, #Austria who may know who made this signal data request? It got rejected on the claim signal timing data would be a security vuln. Europeans and Viennese, please boost!
I'd like to get in touch to ask if they followed up / were successful eventually, or help them.
Please suggest they contact me at [email protected]

Have you seen this, @qgis? @merginmaps? #geospatial is one of the categories. #gis
