OneBusAway (beta) is Made Available to MARTA Riders

5 Mar

Happy Tuesday!

OneBusAway helps MARTA riders know when the next bus is coming.

A couple of months ago, MARTA released their real-time tracking info for buses.  Now some cool apps are starting to hit the market.  This is one that I think is particularly useful.  It’s called OneBusAway and it has been opened for beta testing by students/researchers at Georgia Tech.  It consists of a website, iPhone app, and Android app.  The apps take a little editing of settings to get to work right for Atlanta, but it’s a pretty cool app once it is setup.  It is based off of the OneBusAway instance originally deployed in Seattle, WA.
