Wrangling of OpenStreetMap Data from Zürich
Data munging techniques were used to assess the quality of OpenStreetMap data from Zürich. Afterwards, the data was cleaned programmatically, a storage schema was developed and the data transferred to an SQL database. The data was explored by querrying the different tables and some interesting findings about the area were gathered.
