Inspiration
My inspiration was to build an app that enables safe and efficient trips for Detroit citizens.
What it does
The main features are:
- Finding route (safest, fastest or shortest) for specific transit type (drive, bicycle and walk)
- Show routing summary
- Sending route to Google Maps for navigation
- Adding stop from current location, point on map, address, favourite location
- Adding point barrier
- Bypassing current traffic incidents
- Sharing user's location with other users
- Showing additional layers (average incident density, current traffic conditions and friends' locations)
- Creating summary of incidents in neighbourhood from selected stop
How I built it
I used Open Street Map data for offline routing as well as incident data from Detroit City as for setting routing cost attribute. I used also ArcGIS Online for sharing the outputs
Challenges I ran into
Creating the appropriate network dataset for routing was not an easy beast.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
What I am the most proud of, is that the routing analytics are working completely offline. However, they can be enhanced by current traffic conditions and other incidents in Detroit.
What I learned
Well, I learnt how to use ArcGIS Runtime for Android 100.0.0 for routing purposes. I got familiar with Android Studio as well.
What's next for Safe & Sound
We will see...
