Abstract

This document is a Technical Report of the software project which subject is multi-platform hybrid mobile application called “Dublin Commuting - Live Routing”.

The main focus in this document is on the description of the project problem, requirements specification, analysis and design of the proposed solution as well as description of the implementation, testing and evaluation.

The project subject is the multi-platform hybrid mobile application called “Dublin Commuting - Live Routing”.

The problem which the application will solve is to keep the user, who is commuting in the Greater Dublin Area using public transport (Dublin Bus, LUAS, Dart, Commuter Train, Bus Eireann, Dublin Bikes), updated with live information on the estimated travel times for the route from user’s current location (or other selected location) to selected destination point. The user will be able to take informed decision if the selected route of transport is the best currently available option.

The application being developed is a mobile application created using PhoneGap which will let the system to be converted into mobile application for multiple mobile platforms (Android, iOS, Windows Phone).

Technologies used to implement are web technologies:
- HTML5,
- CSS3,
- JavaScript,
- Bootstrap,
- JavaScript frameworks: jQuery, jQueryMobile.

Application uses external APIs:
- Real time Passenger information (RTPI – Dublin Bus, LUAS, Bus Eireann),
- Irish Rail Real Time API (Dart, Commuter Trains),
- Dublin Bikes API (Dublin Bikes),
- Google Map API,
- Google Directions API,
- Google Places API.

The intended users of the application are the commuters who use public transport within Greater Dublin Area.
