Hi, how would you feel about the wiki being worked on for this, to make installation clearer for people that want to run a speederbot?

I'm not much good at coding (although I do try), but I can put together a pretty good 'how-to' with nicely edited pictures and clear instructions!

I'd be happy to do this if you don't mind - it would be great if we could document this, and also have a place to discuss and ask questions, if possible.

Let me know if I can help!

This would be super-helpful. For example I'm stuck on step 1 - getting the bounding box to my local area. I'm using Chrome on MacOS and it doesn't seem to allow me to zoom out and then re-centre the box.

Or is there a way of inputting coords from google maps?

a113speederbot commented 3 years ago

Hi, I think had this trouble - sorry, only just seen this question.

Try using the +/- buttons to zoom in or out and then pan to your desired location. Left click (and hold) until the small blue box appears on the map under your mouse pointer. Then release the left button and start dragging and moving to accurately place your bounding box.

Just did all the set up following the readme document. Really well done. For now I did only to twitter as I have 0 coding knowledge. No tweets came out so far but it is in london and it is night time so probably not a -busy road- ( i used that blueprint) I scheduled it for every morning.. let s see what happened.. Cheers again for preparing and sharing all of that.

Hey folks, This is a pretty incredible idea, I'm getting some pretty eyebrow raising data into a google sheet but not sure about some of it . Has anyone figured out direction of travel from QD Queuing Direction or DE data? I can see those two attributes are clearly linked.

"FIS": [ { "FI": [ { "TMC": { "PC": 47740, "DE": "Haymarket", "QD": "+", "LE": 0.05842

The XML schema has descriptions of the field acronyms, which is proving to be somewhat useful: https://traffic.ls.hereapi.com/traffic/6.0/xsd/flow3.1.xsd?apiKey=

I found a useful resource for the boundary box here

Hi. I'm new to APIs and MAKE, and am looking for some help.

I've set up an account with HERE and got an API key. I've tried a few examples, some of which work but the ones for picking up flow data give me an error message

"title" : "Forbidden.", "status" : 403, "code" : "403403", "cause" : "App fAULt7LO3MEUM6A2etML credentials do not authorize access to perform GET action on hrn:here:tdaflowinc::HERE:traffic_62_flow_json via SERVICE-3839cf60-7483-43a1-98c9-3d150a4d9af0 because no matching permissions found for the identity, its groups and roles, or the realm.", "action" : "Add/Share the necessary permissions to the identity.", "correlationId" : "6dbced89-5818-4c45-a97e-2fc604b4b68e", "error" : "Forbidden", "details" : [ ], "error_description" : "These credentials do not authorize access" }

Since my API key works for some of their examples, I'm at a loss to know how to fix this. Any help gratefully received.
