GTFS Realtime (also known as GTFS-rt) is an extension to GTFS, in which public transport agencies share real-time vehicle locations, arrival time predictions, and alerts such as detours and cancellations via Protocol Buffers web server. [1] Realtime location data is created continuously by an agency from automatic vehicle location (AVL) systems ...
Isochrone maps have been used in transportation planning since at least 1887. [21] [22] Isochrone maps in the context of transport planning are essentially maps of accessibility where travel time is used as the cost metric. Isochrone maps can be created for different modes of transportation, [23] e.g. foot, bicycle, motor vehicle. Put simply ...
The APIs provide functionality like analytics, machine learning as a service (the Prediction API) or access to user data (when permission to read the data is given). Another important example is an embedded Google map on a website, which can be achieved using the Static Maps API, [1] Places API [2] or Google Earth API. [3]

GTFS or the General Transit Feed Specification defines a common data format for public transportation schedules and associated geographic information. [1] GTFS contains only static or scheduled information about public transport services, and is sometimes known as GTFS Static or GTFS Schedule to distinguish it from the GTFS Realtime extension, which defines how information on the realtime ...
This can include static and moving data, maps, satellite imagery, crowd-sourced data, full motion video, weather data and terrain elevation in many different geodetic references and map projections. Geo-fencing, line-of-sight calculations, geo-triggered events, dynamic and complex route calculations and automated anomaly detection are just a ...
A traffic congestion map is a graphical, realtime or near-realtime representation of traffic flow for some particular area. [1] Data is typically collected via anonymous GPS datapoints and loop sensors embedded in the roadways, then processed by computer at a central facility and distributed as a map view to users.
Web maps with real-time animation include weather maps, traffic congestion maps and vehicle monitoring systems. [16] CartoDB launched an open source library, Torque, [20] which enables the creation of dynamic animated maps with millions of records. Twitter uses this technology to create maps to reflect how users reacted to news and events ...
