Measure uses Poetry as its project management tool. The installation section of their documentation will guide you through the setup process.

Setup the project:

poetry install

This will create or update the environment.

Then, place the shape files to process in the data directory. For now, only the files ending with neighborhood_ways.zip will be detected. The shape files must be retrieved from the bna site.

For instance, for the city of Austin, TX:

1. Go to https://bna.peopleforbikes.org/#/places/02fa7cef-bfb9-494e-9ae9-cdbaeb15f11f/
2. Click the "Download" button
3. Click "Neighborhood Ways (shp)"
4. Save it into the data directory

Finally, run the project to process the file(s):

poetry run python measure/main.py
