Hi Dhaval, This thread on transit-developers forum is from 2012 but I think it describes similar situations though the end-goal is different. I'll advise you join the forum and post a reply there, there might be folks having something to share: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/transit-developers/informal/transit-developers/pHtCu9B45dM/xQMW8sGZWbkJ
Relevant excerpt: *" Informal stopping points – for buses and jeepneys the whole route is * *theoretically a stop, as the driver’s profit-maximisation incentive * *means they respond to flag downs at any opportunity along their * *designated route. "* I would say that a good starting point would be to draw out the routes and code+name them properly. I found geojson.io was quite sufficient for the job. We could then extend to mark hubs where they intersect or come close. Next.. Fare formulas based on distance, or lump-sum. Tanget : At some point I want to explore an idea of using geohashes (see this <http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/geohash.html> and this <http://geohash.gofreerange.com/>) in this sector. (In this group we had discussed plus codes earlier but I found this other open source algo that's open source too and apparently produces even smaller codes.) -- Cheers, Nikhil VJ +91-966-583-1250 Pune, India Website <http://nikhilvj.co.in> DataMeet Pune chapter <https://datameet-pune.github.io/> Self-designed learner at Swaraj University <http://www.swarajuniversity.org> Contribute <https://www.instamojo.com/@nikhilvj/> On Wed, Mar 28, 2018 at 2:15 PM, Dhaval Shukla <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello > > Has anyone here created or worked with informal transit- such as shared > minibuses, jeeps, auto-rickshaws. > > I want to start creating one for the shuttle rickshaws(shared > auto-rickshaws) in Ahmedabad and would like to talk to anyone who has > > Thanks > > -- > Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.
