A topological network, which specifies the formal relationships between geometric objects, requires real geographic data for it to be useful in an actual physical space. So next, we will acquire some geographic data in order to construct a network providing the shortest path between points in a physical space, following certain rules embedded in the network. A great source of data for this, and many other purposes, is OpenStreetMap.
