Visualization mini-site

A separate mini-site showing ALL stops and routes on a map. All of them.

Check it out: Visualization mini-site (⚠️ Uses a lot of bandwidth).

Technicalities

Data

All data such as bus stops, services and routes are mostly scraped from https://www.lta.gov.sg/, which means they are copyrighted by the Land Transport Authority.

They are available here: cheeaun/sgbusdata.

Web App

The scripts for the web app:

• npm start - start server for development
• npm run build - build for production and deployment, in ./dist folder.

Localization

➡️ Start translating ⬅️

Visualization

At least Node.js 14 is required.

The scripts to generate the data, in order:

1. node visualization/build-routes.mjs
   • Reads data.busrouter.sg/v1/data/stops.min.json and transform routes data with "levels" for 3D extrusion.
   • Generates visualization/data/routes.json and visualization/data/levels.json to be read by the build-stops script.
2. node visualization/build-stops.mjs
   • Reads data.busrouter.sg/v1/data/stops.min.geojson and buffered into triangle polygons which will be 3D-extruded.
   • Generates visualization/data/stops.3d.json.
