[Feature Request] Check status of bus routes #1071

Closed anandbaburajan closed 5 years ago

Subject of the issue

This addresses the feature request issue: https://github.com/IEEEKeralaSection/rescuekerala/issues/1028, for checking status of routes.

Perhaps this can help in some way: https://www.gizmolead.com/keralaroutes/ Code: https://github.com/AnandBaburajan/route-status-for-kerala-floods The routes are updated by the people, for the people.

It uses PHP with JSON files and is fully functional. It's currently hosted on a test site (my blog) and can be hosted somewhere else if needed.

Would this be helpful if used as an iframe on a page at keralarescue.in?

the sites need more data. can you update the contents

anandbaburajan commented 5 years ago

Yes, I'll add some more affected routes connecting prominent locations.

anandbaburajan commented 5 years ago

I've updated around 15 affected routes and a few good routes. The rest of the routes can be voluntarily updated by people with info. Is this good to go?

The idea is nice and if we could set this up for bus and train routes, get enough publicity, it can help a lot of people. Most routes are okay now. For the future.

anandbaburajan commented 5 years ago

Can we at least try to get it up and running?

@AnandBaburajan Thank you for making this website. But it doesn't have enough data to be used by the public. It feels more like a beta website to me. You can try to onboard people from our slack channels.
