Here is a dump of the some GPS data, I was mining. There are several issues
with bmtc, buses with same numbers in different routes at same time. Zero
fares for few airport routes. Overall it will need at-least 2 more months
for things to get fixed.

Anyone interested to do your own analysis, visualization are welcome to
share the results to be forwarded to BMTC.

I am waiting to get all the buses come online, to make a GTFS, GTFS-RT
based on dynamic schedules based on traffic patterns through the GPS data.
Right now the schedules are real bad.
