There is no publicly available mobile app that allows riders of Atlanta's MARTA train system to track trains in real time. This is a problem, especially during off-peak hours.
Over the course of 24 hrs., a team at Random Hacks of Kindness - Atlanta developed a demo for a web-based MARTA train tracker. Built with Java, the mobile web app uses simulated real-time data to provide visualized train tracking as well as arrival and departure times at individual stations.
The next step will be persuading MARTA to make the real-time train data available for the app.
Over the course of 24 hrs., a team at Random Hacks of Kindness - Atlanta developed a demo for a web-based MARTA train tracker. Built with Java, the mobile web app uses simulated real-time data and set schedule data to provide visualized train tracking. So we had an app that would show a Google Map and automatically zoom in to the area near the user and show trains. Location of trains was based on simulated real-time data and set schedule data scraped off the MARTA web site. In the future the app would be expanded so that clicking on a station would show the ETAs on trains, again based on data, so for example at Midtown Station you might see a listing for the next two Doraville trains, next North Springs and next two Airport trains.
