Visualizing 24 hours of subway activity in New York City

Will Geary created this colorful and soothing data visualization of a day's worth of subway routes around the Big Apple.

Will says it was made with Processing and Carto using data from MTA and Google Maps: "This project builds off a tutorial from Juan Francisco Saldarriaga, which can be found here."
