Visualizing the Capital Bikeshare

http://youtu.be/O\_njHxFRj4o

This animation shows over 32,000 trips on the Capital Bikeshare from October 4-8 2012. (Wednesday-Sunday) Data available here: http://www.capitalbikeshare.com/trip-history-data.

Blue dots are trip starts, and fade away immediately after appearing. Yellow dots show the interpolated path between start station and end station over time.
