Cool Walks AU maps the shadiest dog walks in northern Brisbane
An interactive route tool models shade across a northern Brisbane corridor for walking, dog-walking, and cycling.
Field notes
The tool compares route choices using a shade model rather than distance alone, with controls for time of day, fastest-versus-coolest preference, walk length, ratings, and facilities. Its stated coverage is a northern Brisbane corridor, and the interface distinguishes exposed from shaded conditions while warning that modelled shade may not match current conditions. A methodology link and correction channel provide some visibility into how the map is maintained.
