The files in this directory contain street and restaurant information for the city of Pittsburgh, used by the Scandal project's map program.

The street information is quite detailed, but it has many minor errors (e.g. misspelled and out-of-date streets, and incorrect street numbers). The data comes from the City of Pittburgh via David McKeown and Bernd Bruegge. The places.txt file comes from the Guide To Living in Pittsburgh extended by Guy Blelloch.

The following three files are delimited by spaces within an entry and a newline between entries.

  • intersections.txt
    Entry Format: x-position y-position
  • segments.txt
    Entry Format: Intersect1 Intersect2 length min-street-num max-street-num
    Intersects refer to line numbers in intersection.txt (0-based)
  • streets.txt
    Entry Format: street-name size #of-segs seg1 seg2 seg3 .....
    Segs refer to line numbers in segments.txt (0-based)
    Size refers to the importance of the street -- how it should be marked.
    (Sorted alphabetically by street-name)
    (Within an entry the segments are in increasing order by street numbers)
  • The following files are delimited by newlines within an entry and the * character between entries.

  • places.txt
    Entry Format:
               entry-name
               street-number street-name
