How will we research our users?

Past solutions

Google Now Automatically learns commute route and times Automatic traffic notifications before/during/after commute Google Now.

NextBus Useful for public transit users, NextBus polls for the next arrivals for various transit systems across the US, including the University of Maryland NextBus.

What is CommuteARoute?

Via maps and alerts, we utilize a wide variety of data sources to better inform users of: Transit infoAccidents, Construction, Delays Crime and Safety Info Washington D.C. Metro Map, srv/wrctraffic/metromap/front.html Madrid, Aaron: "Road Construction Ahead…and Behind…and Over There…", content/uploads/2012/06/road-construction2.jpg Thompson, Isaiah: Crime Drop Varies By Neighborhood (2013), content/uploads/2013/01/NBcrime- 800x555.jpg

User data is used not only for one’s use, but helps inform others too! Tracking the user’s commute route and time is performed on the device by geolocation. This data is analyzed to suggest alternatives. We inform users of accidents, delays, and other adverse events via user-reported data.

We help the user log how efficient their commute is. Not only would the system compute average times of certain routes, but we would also allow for the user to log the costs of fuel and transit fares.

And we suggest alternatives to lower costs or travel time! With the user's commute data, we can find options that could make their commute cheaper or faster. For instance, they might be able to take bus/rail, carpool, taxi, or in some cases walk or bike.
