Surveying
Cycle route surveying lies at the heart of CycleCity Guides. All our early maps were based on pioneering surveying of some of the country’s largest cities to build up networks of official, advisory and traffic-free routes. Many of the “advisory” routes identified by our surveyors have since been converted into signed “official” routes.
Our fieldwork methods have also been updated - moving from coloured pens and paper to Ordnance Survey digital map displays and handheld computers.
Cycle routes are now automatically surveyed to the Transport Direct/Cycling England national standard for inclusion in internet journey planning. Surveys can also cover route signing, cycle parking, infrastructure audits and rights of way.
Data is delivered in all common Geographic Information Systems (GIS) formats.
We always remember that good maps rely on accurate basic information.
