ShadeKA

Web application · geospatial

A pedestrian routing app for Karlsruhe that optimises walking routes for shade. It computes shadows from building and tree geometry for a chosen time of day and shows the resulting route in a 3D city view.

My role

Concept, data pipeline, backend and frontend.

  • Shadow geometry derived from 3D building and tree data, stored and queried in PostGIS.
  • Routing that weights street segments by how much shade they offer at the selected time.
  • Interactive 3D city view built with MapLibre GL and three.js.
