Smooth hierarchy to improve visual continuity

[Nate-Wessel]

There are many places where the bins for street hierarchy seem to break at visually/logically inconvenient places. That is, a street or part of the network that seems functionally/visually continuous may be broken into multiple values in the hierarchy. Some examples:

Bloor West:

Sorauren Ave:

Borden Street:

We need to find a way of aggregating these into more coherent/continuous entities.

Yet another place I could apply a hidden markov model??

i.e. penalizing state transitions and viewing bin assignment as semi-random.
