How does it work?

We use a central NTCIP derived database to represent the schedules. Because of this, we can use data from a variety of transit systems. For example, Portland Tri-Met in Portland, Oregon has given us access to their September 2000 scheduling information. This allows us to run a demonstration MyBus server for Portland which shows the results of our research using the TCP standard definitions.

The demo rotates through upcoming scheduled departures for each timepoint location. Since no connection has been made to Portland's real-time vehicle location system, however, we cannot provide information on predicted and actual departure times, as we do for King County. If you are interested in real-time transit information for the Portland area, please see Portland Tri-Met's web site.

Here's an article that explains the Mybus prediction algorithm.
