Some of you have asked how to get your city included. This email was recently sent to the list. Please read and note the list of transit databases listed below.
MikeGPS systems wouldn't be very interesting without data content. Most systems contain street map data for major countries. The number of businesses varies however a lot from system to system. I believe the more data the better, especially for blind users who can't see the print signs on businesses or on bus shelters.
This is why, as part of a Small Business grant, Sendero has been working to format the Google Transit System Feed data, GTSF, which has well over 100 databases of city transit stops in North America and a few other countries. GTSF provides a common format, which makes importing these diverse databases possible. So far, 36 of the 130 databases are available on 2010 Sendero GPS products and the remainder will be addressed on a user request basis. If you or a client are using one of the Sendero GPS products and would like your local transit stop database made available, check the list below and if you see it, email GPS@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with your request.
With this data, the user can find the exact locations of bus and light rail stops around the city. You can hear the bus numbers at that location and other relevant information about that stop or shelter. One of the best databases to check out if there isn't one in your city, is the Portland Oregon TriMet system.
