Strava Heatmap 2014 vs 2015

Here's a link to Stravas Heatmap comparing 2014 vs 2015. I use strava and I can see all my little shortcuts new routes on the new map.

https://labs.strava.com/heatmap/2014-...8038/gray/bike

Does anyone know if its possible to use this heatmap and build new routes on top of it? it would be a good way to be sure when going to a new place the route is reasonable without constantly checking google streetview.

I don't know what the equivalent is for NY, but I have an atlas of all the roads in Michigan, showing if they're paved or not. Traffic density isn't usually an issue.

In Strava, under "Dashboard" go to "My Routes"; click "Create New Route"; click the gear icon on the top left and turn on "Global Heatmap". Now you can create a route based on a heatmpa of all Strava data. I use it all the time.

edit - afterthought, this is part of the free membership with Strava (you don't need to have the Premium membership)
