An Android app to spot your bus

MY   MTC   for a smoother and smarter  MTC  bus journey !!! ​ The biggest problem about the city bus journey is not knowing when the bus can reach your stop. There can be many reasons for it like bus-schedule-change/ traffic-jam / rain etc., Unless there is some real time tracking we end up waiting and spending anxious time for buses at bus stops daily.  MY   MTC   is an initiative which solves this issue by forming a bus community and crowd sourcing current bus locations for  MTC  buses in Chennai. It is developed keeping in view of the problems faced by the bus commuters. How  MY   MTC  works: ITS VERY SIMPLE - When ever you notice a bus during your daily travel, just update in the app. The commuters who needs that bus will find it through the app. Current location of the bus is automatically retrieved through user GPS which prevents wrong updates. Efficient algorithms are written to make this process...
