Geographic selection and display of GTFS routes #633

Open abyrd opened 4 years ago

abyrd commented 4 years ago

In the frontend we have long wanted to display the GTFS data and allow routes/patterns/trips to be selected by geographic location. One element of this is just spatial indexing of the available routes (either the whole shapes, or their inter-stop segments). We may want a single way of returning them (JSON objects with attached geometries) or two different ways (both JSON and vector tiles for direct display on the map).
