Realtime-Port-Authority

The purpose of this was to create a real-time tracking of port authority of Pittsburgh, PA, using the realtime API given by Port Authority on top of the Google Maps API.

Features:

  • Buses Run at Realtime
  • shows ETAs of buses to stops and stops to buses
  • shows stop markers above a certain zoom
  • ListView saves via sharedpreferences
  • polylines added via Asynctask
  • multiple polylines connected to each other
  • uses xml to read and write via XmlPullParser

Releases:

API limitations:

  • the buses don't update until after 10+ seconds. Our app only updates every 10 seconds
  • There are only a couple buses offered publicly. We promise to get updates to the new buses as soon as possible!
