About this app
The HereItIs application takes the GSP data of the buses / trams exposed by an Open Data API by the transport regions and displays this data in real time and in motion on a map and on a panel where we can see the estimated time for each station. . This data can be displayed with any frequency coming from the regional transports (currently it is 30 sec).
The application has the necessary maps for running in all major cities in the country.
Currently active cities with real data:
Iasi: the application takes data from such an API in Iasi, however in Iasi there are two problems: only 90% of the vehicles transmit data (the others are currently defective), and the second problem is that the data from that API exposed by CTP Iasi do not contain the number of the route that vehicle goes on. However HereItIs has implemented a line detection algorithm, so in Iasi the 90% of the vehicles on the road and which have transmitted GPS data appear on the map (in the immediate period following CTP Iasi will fix these and they will become automatically visible on the map), the others vehicles that can be put on the passenger map through preconfigured “I saw / I left” functionalities.
Oradea: after months of traffic monitoring, we estimate all vehicles in Oradea with an accuracy of less than one minute.
In all of these cities the application can be used if there is an open API with the GPS data of the means of transport or if we could find collaborators to promote the application to be used through the sharing functionality of the bus location from the commuter community: Alba, Arad, Brasov, Bucharest, Cluj, Constanta, Craiova, Ploiesti, Sibiu, Timisoara, soon and Bacau).
The operating principle is based both on data taken from the transport regions and on the input of the passenger community.
The application is free, currently has no ads that bother, the only condition to use the application is to be supportive of each other and to "sharu" information about the location of buses.
The main screen of the application consists of a map of our city, a circle of 2km, a search component and a button with which we control all the actions we can do. We can also see waiting times for stations near my location.
Basically we load on the map only the means of public transport within a radius of 2km from my current location, of course if we want to see and beyond this distance we can use the "Search" component, all the means of public transport selected by that the component becomes visible on the map with no distance from my location. We can define a limited number at the moment to 2 "favorite" routes, these will be visible on the map on the entire surface of the city when loading the application.
To clear the location of a means of transport we have 2 cases:
1. If the bus / tram with which I intend to leave has not yet been shuffled by someone else on the map, press the green button -> "I left", then from the displayed list I select the desired route and the direction of travel through a left or right slide.
2. If the bus has already been shuffled, click on it and press "I left"
The application makes validations and does not allow the sharing of information unless the user is on the route of the respective means of transport.
When we share the location of a means of transport with the "I left" option, the application starts to recur the current user's location, with the "I saw" functionality, I allow the application to take my location once.
Application Requires the following access rights:
- Internet connection to receive live data on the means of public transport
- Local storage to save some minimal information such as: favorite city name and favorite routes.
