MOTIS stands for Multi Objective Travel Information System.
The core features are:
- Intermodal Routing: computing optimal journeys mixing public transit, sharing mobility, walking, etc. in sensible ways. Read more.
- Real Time Support: considering delays, train cancellations, additional services, reroutings, track changes, etc. Read more.
- Visualization: view vehicle movements in real-time. Try it out!
- JSON API: the backend provides a JSON API via HTTP. Documentation
More detailed information can be found at motis-project.de.
To demonstrate the functionalities, an Android App and a web-based information system is available. The source code for both front-ends is available as Open Source Software as well.
The system can consume schedule timetables in the GTFS or HAFAS format as well as real time information in the GTFS-RT (and RISML, a propriatary format at Deutsche Bahn) as input data. For pedestrian routing (handled by Per Pedes Routing) and car routing (handled by OSRM) OpenStreetMap data is used.
