T-Comm is a web application designed for mobile browsers to provide a realtime system map of buses in Metro Vancouver, and the status and history of any specific bus in the system.
The application backend is PHP/MySQL, with data sourced from TransLink’s Real Time Transit Information (RTTI) API. On the front end, HTML, JavaScript, CSS is used, with the Bootstrap UI framework. For the map, I use OpenStreetMap data visualized through the Leaflet JS library.
T-Comm can be accessed by anyone, but its target audience is primarily transit enthusiasts in the Metro Vancouver area.
