MY FIRST MASHUP: ONAIR BUS TRACKING

WEDNESDAY, JULY 11 2007 @ 01:47 PM

I was doing some research on the Google Maps API for an upcoming project. Even though I am not going to do the mapoing part myself, I wanted to have an understanding of the basics of the Google Maps functionality, as I have never had the opportunity to play with it. So, here's my first attempt to do a mashup, using the location feed from the onAIR Bus API.

It is still an alpha version, but I wanted to make it public (beyond my tweets), for people to see and comment.

ToDo:
- Add a header
- Add a legend
- Normalize event dates
- Mark visited stops
- Maybe make icons for stops a little bit smaller

how do you get the gps feed on a webservice?

what kind of hardware is required for this? Do you need any additional softwares to broadcast it to the web?
