Every line represents one bike trip made with Citibike in Manhattan and Brooklyn on July 1st of last year. The line appears when someone starts biking and disappears when the bike has been returned to a station. What I've basically created is a Python script that reads the original data, extracts the start and endtime and draws a line between them with the accompanying coordinates. Then, it creates a layer for every frame in ArcGIS and exports all the frames as a PNG so I can load it into my video editor. Now that I have my workflow actually working, I can improve the design so it'll hopefully make more intuitive sense as to what you're looking at.
