TrackAtlas: A Solo Builder Mapped All 18,861 Running Tracks in the U.S. Plus Eight Other Countries With Claude
r/ClaudeAI (65up/16c)·low signal
An r/ClaudeAI post (65up/16c) shares TrackAtlas.org, a map of 18,861 U.S. running tracks with coverage extended to eight additional countries, where the builder credits Claude for both the data-sourcing algorithm and the site itself. The interesting part is the pipeline rather than the site: the hard problem was deriving track locations at national scale from unstructured sources, not rendering them. It is a clean example of an agent used as a data-acquisition tool rather than a code generator.
