Initial Ideas• more robust bus information for users

• bus fleet fuel economy

Product• collating what’s available from the data published

by VTA directly, as well as AmigoCloud, 511.org (MTC), and TransLoc

• creating a library of reformatted data and repackaging it in ways that will be usable for others

Thoughts for the future

• ridership statistics (real-time arrivals, departures, boarding and alighting numbers)

• bike rack occupancy information

• fuel consumption data (saved by maintenance teams currently, needs to be made public)
