Insight in transport flows
BasGoed calculates the transport of goods to, from, via or passing the Netherlands. The model balances origins of production, attraction, trade and costs of transport via the possible modes of transport. This produces a lot of data of flows between regions for different types of goods.
To make sense of the output it is structured in a tidy format and geographically coupled to regions in GeoJSON. We then developed a lightweight web viewer to be able to aggregate, filter, group and compare production, attraction and flows geographically.
The viewer is fully JavaScript based and uses OpenLayers and Chart.js.
