Project Goal
The goal was to provide real-time locations of city buses. This was accomplished by first setting up a base Enterprise deployment. The Last known location from the ArcGIS Server was added as a secure service into a publicly shared webmap on AGOL. The Tracker/Field map app was configured to update the locations every thirty seconds.Business Problem Solved
The City of Hattiesburg launched new routes for its fixed-route buses and required an efficient and cost-effective solution to inform citizens and university students of new routes and schedules. By providing a public facing WebApp link that could be saved to the homepage of any smartphone, we gave them the ease of knowing where their bus is at any given time.
