A digital transportation planning and operations language

In many cities worldwide, planning and operating public transportation networks is done manually. Through the process of digital transformation – translating hand modeling and paper systems into a digital language – public transportation becomes more efficient, equitable, and sustainable. In this presentation, Optibus CEO and co-founder Amos Haggiag discusses the process of creating a new digital language for transportation planning that can be understood by transportation planners of all technical and cultural backgrounds, improving passenger communication systems, and how this all can encourage public transportation ridership.

The Apple Maps Transit feature must synthesize what would traditionally be several different transit maps into one interactive, multi-scale map. Careful system selection, generalization, and styling are required to build a cohesive hierarchy across scales. This hierarchy must be flexible to the addition of new service types, like buses, to existing markets. We will discuss the design conventions, considerations, and trade-offs used to develop Apple’s Transit map.
