[Talk-ca] Fwd: link on wiki to new research report

Interesting use of OSM and transit feeds for a report on multi-modal
trip planning.

Hi all,



One of my colleagues and I have completed a report on developing
multimodal trip planners. The report focuses on open-source software,
and open data sources such as OpenStreetMap and public transportation
data in GTFS format. The report is available at



http://www.nctr.usf.edu/2011/05/enabling-cost-effective-multimodal-trip-planners-through-open-transit-data-2/



I've added this to the list of research reports on the OSM wiki
research page, and a note on the wiki OpenTripPlanner page, with links
to the report.



Discussions that we followed, and in some cases participated in, on
the OSM talk, talk-us, talk-ca, and talk-transit listservs were very
helpful to the project.



We are following up the project with several proposals to improve
documentation and support a local organization in moving beyond this
feasibility study to full implementation. Our center is grant-funded,
so although we will continue to follow progress in our spare time,
significant follow-up work will depend on our ability to get proposals
funded.



Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the
project or report.
