Atlanta
Atlanta's public transit system (MARTA) has an app that shows real-time location of buses, but doesn't currently show locations of trains. Estimated time of arrivals are only shown on LED screens inside train stations. Unlike other forward-thinking cities' public transit authorities, MARTA currently does not have a public API to access their data. Thus, the team who wishes to tackle this problem will need to do some community-organizing to encourage MARTA's board of directors to open up the data.
User Stories:
