City-Go-Round is a new website that helps transit riders find useful applications in their cities. Besides trying to make public transit more convenient, the site hopes to encourage agencies to make their data publicly available:
Lack of open data is the biggest barrier to software innovation. One of City-Go-Round’s goals is to make all public transit data public. To do this, we show the benefit of providing open data (innovative apps built on top of that data) and also provide a list of agencies who haven’t yet opened their data.
The site currently includes more than 60 applications. Link to City-Go-Round launch press release.
