Simplifying OpenStreetMap Data: Reducing Multi-Lane Streets to Single Lanes

OpenStreetMap (OSM) provides detailed vector data representation of street networks worldwide, yet its level of detail can be challenging for some applications. Our research focuses on simplifying multi-lane streets into single lanes for pedestrian walkability modeling. We developed a Python tool that consolidates multi-lane streets while maintaining network continuity. Tested in Turin, Italy, our tool effectively simplifies OSM data. Our research contributes to OSM data simplification knowledge, and our tool is a valuable resource for modeling pedestrian walkability in various urban environments. https://github.com/achic19/micro_walking/tree/master/notebook/output/turin
