My Route website

The Omsk Ad­min­is­tra­tion de­cided to im­ple­ment a sys­tem for mon­it­or­ing route trans­port and, as a by-product, a web­site that al­lows pas­sen­gers to re­ceive in­form­a­tion about its loc­a­tion and the fore­cast of ar­rival at the stop.

To in­dic­ate the type of trans­port, I drew small icons de­not­ing a bus, trol­ley­bus, tram and minibus (then Gazelles were used), as well as a stop.

The satel­lite sys­tem al­lows you to track the po­s­i­tion of trans­port in space, lat­it­ude, lon­git­ude and azi­muth. The sys­tem out­puts an angle with an ac­cur­acy of a de­gree, but for visu­al­iz­a­tion we de­cided to dis­cret­ize it in in­cre­ments of 15 de­grees.

It was also de­cided to ap­ply col­or cod­ing of trans­port. Re­mem­ber­ing the dif­fer­ent col­ors used on tick­ets in Omsk in the 80s of the last cen­tury, I set the red col­or of the circle and ar­rows for buses,

Blue for trol­ley­buses.

Green for trams.

By click­ing on the circle of the stop, a bubble with its name is called, which provides three tabs, a list of pos­sible trans­port, a fore­cast of the ar­rival of the nearest trans­port to this stop, a fore­cast of ar­rival for a spe­cif­ic route.

I am glad that thou­sands of Omsk res­id­ents use the My Route sys­tem every day.
