Paris Viz
A living atlas of Paris and Île-de-France, drawn from open data.
Mouvementthe city in motion
Flux - the transit network in motion
Every scheduled trip of a full day moves across the map: 20,000 métro, RER and tram runs, plus 90,000 buses one checkbox away.
Horizon - how far can you get?
Pick any station and watch 75 minutes ripple across the region: everywhere the rail network can take you, walking included.
Relief - the ridership landscape
Every station as a mountain rising with its validations per hour: a calm sea at 3am, ranges along the RER at 8:30, La Défense towering alone at 6pm.
Noctilien - night buses
Heatmap of night-bus frequency: which neighbourhoods are served after midnight, and which are not.
Matièrethe built city
Vertige - how tall is Paris?
Every building inside the périphérique in 3D, appearing floor by floor: the whole city tops out at the Haussmann roofline, then a handful of towers keep climbing alone.
Strates - how old is Paris?
The same city assembled year by year: the medieval core, the 1851-1914 explosion that built half of Paris, then the concrete century filling the edges.
Mirage - the tourist flats
Every Airbnb in Paris colored by registration status: watch today's 78,000 listings arrive year by year, half of them since mid-2023.
Élémentsair, heat and water
Respire - the air you breathe
Seven years of hourly air quality breathing over the map: winter smog, clean windy days, and the 2020 lockdown clearing the sky in a week.
Crue - the Seine rising
Raise the river through the 3D city, centimeter by centimeter over the real terrain: the quays go under at 6 m, and at 8.62 m the flood of 1910 returns.
Canicule - the heat island
39,000 blocks scored for heat: the dense mineral city glows long after dark while parks and rivers stay cool, and the night map shows who cannot escape it.
