[OSGeo-Discuss] density maps

[Andy Turner]

Hi,

I developed some code that would do this. I called it Geographically Weighted Statistics and it relies on another library I developed called Grids. You can find these via the following URLs:

Best wishes,

Andy

I believe this implementation is done with Postgis & not sure what else
http://www.walkscore.com/rankings/San_Francisco

The creator of that site lurks here too, and I can put you in contact
