How to cite

Hi, m-wrzr!
Many thanks for your great package.
Could you provide how to cite information of your populartimes package?
I will cite your package in our paper.

Best regards,
Mat

Hey, I would suggest you cite Google Maps directly. It's their data and corresponds to the displayed maps. If you want to cite the tool too, you could do something like this:

@misc{populartimes,
  author = {m-wrzr, riedmaph},
  title = {populartimes},
  year = {2018},
  publisher = {GitHub},
  journal = {GitHub repository},
  howpublished = {\url{https://github.com/m-wrzr/populartimes}},
  commit = {a5205d7fc909ca09dd18ad5de2dcbd0096cfc817}
}

Can you post a link to the paper here once it is finished? I would be very interested in the research!

Hi, m-wrzr and rgudis1!
Sorry for my late response.
Thanks all of your great contributions.
Yes! I will paste a link to my (our) paper which will be published.

I simply collected populartime data in a site by using your populartimes.get() function.
Then, I used their coordinate and dynamically mapped them as you show.
Finally, I viewed the data as a quasi-real-time building (shop) activity data.

I am grad to communicate with you, thank you very much!
