dhirajt / dtc_bus_routes Goto Github PK

As one of the original creators of busroutes.in along with @yuvipanda @justjkk @srikanthlogic, its great to see this idea live on.

A little history: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Chennai/Bus_Route_mapping_project

Thank you @dhirajt.

If you look in this video, you'll find out that Chicago Transit Authority have a very good API for developers. Yet in India, government don't have public data.

I was inspired by the problem solving in that video that we should have such API. No matter even through OUR API.

We can't have the GPS coordinates, and real-time tracking and stuff, that I know because DTC buses are not GPS enabled. There is also a time field for BUS from which we can predict where the bus actually would be at given time. There are many more data that are provided by Chicago Transit Authority.

How about my idea? Please see that video if you haven't and tell me your thoughts. I'd be happy to hear from you. 😃

I searched bus between Central school lodhi colony and Dwarka sector 1
Result : 794 correct

But the order of the stops was not correct. They seemed for have mixed

README says to run these commands to create tables and populate them with data:

python manage.py migrate                  # creates tables in db
python manage.py loaddata stage.json      # load initial data through json files
python manage.py loaddata route.json      # from busroutes/fixtures
python manage.py loaddata stageseq.json

But I couldn't find the JSON files mentioned above. Also busroutes/fixtures does not exist.
