Some of us are wondering what SteveC will be up to next, between hang
gliding lessons and skiing. He offered one hint today when he
published a new blog and introduced us to “Transiki”. Kind of like
Transit and Wiki; get it?
Steve talked about proprietary transit formats and varying attitudes
toward data sharing. This will be good fun to keep an eye on as it
progresses. Imagine the cool things that we’ll be able to learn when
we can see the neighboring and / or competing transit systems all in
the same tool. We’ve seen how OpenCycleMap makes a joke of municipal
cycle maps that “stop at the border”. Cyclists care bout the other
side of the border as well. Transit maps are about to get a wakeup
call.
You should read all of Steve’s announcement on his new Transiki blog:
