Description Marcus Lundblad 2016-03-23 21:05:28 UTC
In https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755808 I've started implementing a proof-of-concept implementation of transit routing (for public transportation options) using OpenTripPlanner as a back-end service.
Eventually we're gonna need some mockups for rendering transit itineraries into the instruct area (were currently the turn instructions shows up for car, bike, and walk routing).
Also design for time (depart after/arrive before) selection and transit options (such as possibly preferences for maximum number of transfers, preferred transit modes, maybe wheelchair accessability, and so on) will be needed.
I've added some examples of prior art in https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/Apps/Maps/RelevantArt/

I've started a wiki page with some background and relevant art here https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/Apps/Maps/PublicTransportation

Mind if I move the "Transit routing" previous art there to have it all in one place?
Comment 2 Andreas Nilsson 2016-03-24 13:05:16 UTC
Check out the User Stories and see if they match up with the use cases you think would make sense. I can even do some basic interviews with friends and see how they use transit info.

Absolutely not!
I just threw it in there quickly while I had it in mind.

Yeah, I think those covers quite good the basic usecases!
Interviews sounds like an awesome idea!

To clarify, I don't mind if you move the old previous art to the new page :-)

Done!
Comment 7 Andreas Nilsson 2016-05-13 11:16:25 UTC
I've finished a bunch of interviews with several people who use public transportation, and then turned those into more abstract personas and created workflows for those.

Background Interviews: https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/Apps/Maps/PublicTransportation/Interviews

Stories and Workflows: https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/Apps/Maps/PublicTransportation/


If these looks good, I'll move on to create mockups.
Comment 8 Andreas Nilsson 2016-05-20 13:13:36 UTC
First mockup. Still a lot of interaction details that are missing.

These mockups have been implemented since 3.24 ☺
