Mornin' Folks,
I'd like to share my weekend project with you, a visualization of
Google Transit Feed Spec-formatted transit data. These videos,
produced using the rad programming language 'Processing', display a
dynamic map of the progression of all vehicles in a transit system
over a span of time. Little erupting circles signal the departure of a
vehicle from a stop. I've produced four so far, three of which I've
uploaded to Flickr:
Portland Trimet, Weekday, from 4 AM to 12 Midnight:

*I made this as an illustration and confirmation of the principle that
Joe just posted about (http://www.yjolt.org/11/fall/robinson-0)- that
government is better suited to the creation and dissimination of raw
data, and the community is far better suited to community-facing
applications. Moreover, while open data is good, open _standards_ are
even better, effectively greasing the skids for innovation.
I'm an alright programmer but I'm a terrible artist. In the hopes
someone can take this work and make it even prettier, I've included
the source code under the MIT license.
