📣 Workflows in GOAT can now branch! Cyrine Kamoun built a Conditional node into the Control section of the workflow toolbox. Drag it onto the canvas, give it a condition, connect two branches — True leaves the top, False leaves the bottom. The layer itself passes through unchanged. It just goes one way or the other. Some regions come with a GTFS feed, some don't. The Conditional checks whether the stops layer has anything in it: if yes, the workflow runs the PT catchment. If not, it takes the other branch and falls back to walking. One workflow, both regions, no rerouting by hand. Want to learn more about workflows?

📣 Das Verkehrsportal von Baden-Württemberg – komplett in GOAT gebaut und ab sofort live! Die neue VerkehrsInfo BW ist seit ein paar Tagen online. Die gesamte Anwendung ist in GOAT entstanden: Wir haben die Datenquellen angebunden, die Layer gestylt, die Basemaps eingebunden und die App selbst im Dashboards-Modus zusammengesetzt. Was normalerweise mehrere Werkzeuge und ein eigenes Entwicklerteam braucht, lief hier an einem Ort – und das Ergebnis funktioniert am Smartphone genauso gut wie am Desktop. Die angezeigten Daten sind live und stammen aus verschiedenen Landes- und Bundesstellen, gebündelt über MobiData BW. Gleichzeitig hilft die VerkehrsInfo BW dabei, weitere Datenquellen in MobiData BW zu bringen. ⚙️ Für das Projekt haben wir außerdem die Whitelabelling-Funktionen in GOAT ausgebaut und bestehende Features erweitert. Ein großes Dankeschön an NVBW - Nahverkehrsgesellschaft Baden-Württemberg mbH und das Ministry of Transport Baden-Württemberg für die Zusammenarbeit. 🌐 Zur Kartenanwendung: https://lnkd.in/dcm4AQwW #MobiDataBW #OpenData #DigitaleMobilität #GOAT

The supermarket closest to you usually isn't the one you actually go to. In 1963, a marketing professor worked out why — and turned it into a model that's still standard in retail and planning today. It comes down to two things: how attractive a place is, and how far you'll travel. Where it came from, how the math works, and what it shows 👇 And by the way, you can try it out in #GOAT for free ;) #UrbanPlanning #AccessibilityAnalysis #webGIS #SpatialAnalysis

Wir freuen uns, dass das neue Verkehrsinfo-Portal für Baden-Württemberg nun online ist und zu 100 % mit GOAT erstellt wurde! Schaut doch mal rein 👇

Every city runs on infrastructure you can see — roads, rails, stops. But increasingly, some of the most useful civic tools are ones you carry in your pocket. A pothole you reported. A bus arrival you actually trusted. A parking spot you found without circling. A crossing you knew you could make. None of these needed new concrete — just someone treating the city as something you can read, and build on. Swipe through four that are quietly changing how cities feel to live in 👇 And if you want the behind-the-scenes of building one by Nihar Thakkar, the story of Park-Stark is in the comments. #SmartCities #UrbanMobility #CivicTech #Accessibility #UrbanPlanning

Paste a link into Linkedin or WhatsApp and you get a little preview card. For a shared GOAT dashboard, that card now it is all yours. Now you set it once — a preview image and a short description — and every link you share unfurls in your look. The dashboard was always yours. Now so is the thing people see before they open it. #GIS #UrbanPlanning #Dashboards #SpatialPlanning #GOAT

Super happy to have been part of these 3 days!

If you work with GIS, you already know GIS workflows. And if you don't yet... you're probably the person quietly rebuilding the same analysis for the third time this month. Cyrine Kamoun, our Transport Engineer and developer, wrote the guide she wishes she'd had when she started: what workflows are, when they're actually worth it, and how to build them in #GOAT.

Our team is at #NECTAR26 today and tomorrow, come say hi! We've got some exciting things to show you 👋

Feels like home. 🏡  There are few such great opportunities for us at Plan4Better to keep our academic roots liveable then this amazing 18th #NECTAR26 conference. Honestly was really impressed by TUM Accessibility Planning and NECTAR, organizing this at the Oskar von Miller Forum in Munich. The number of activities is insane, next to a record number of excellent speakers. Really enjoying all the connections I get to refresh and create over the next days. We at Plan4better are present as sponsors, but most importantly as interested accessibility, mobility, GIS and data geeks. Let's use the opportunity to grow together and chat in person. Come meet Cyrine Kamoun Nihar Thakkar and me 👋
