Whether they attempt to build jeepney
stops, expand transit access, or improve bus routes, transit
projects across much of the developing world are often
hampered by (1) the lack of accurate transit maps and data
and (2) the weak capacity of transit agencies to acquire and
use such data. To address the twin aspects of this
long-standing challenge, the World Bank, in collaboration
with the Philippines and Australian Aid, developed both a
methodology and a suite of open-source software applications
based on free, internationally supported open data
standards. The solutions have allowed the quick, low-cost
production of transit maps; and they have empowered the
agencies, and potentially businesses and the rest of
government, for the first time to make ambitious planning
and investment decisions based on accurate, comprehensive
transit data. The global applicability of this approach has
been demonstrated by its adoption in six other developing
countries to date. |
