  Route Data (Transit, Biking, Walking)

We noticed an issue in the of transparency in emission rates of different methods of transportation.

What it does

Our project takes in 2 address and find the following data points:

• Time
• Distance
• Emissions

For different modes of transportation( driving, transit, biking, and walking). Aswell as the time for departure and arrival of the transit

How did you do it

We used React along with Google Maps API for frontend development. For backend we used ExpressJS for handling webserver and and Here API for retrieve real-time route data for our different modes of transportation.

Challenges we ran into

We found retrieving data from different API and ensuring compatibility to be difficult. Another obstacle was making our data efficient across different data types.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud to have a successful project. We worked hard over this weekend and are proud to see our hard work.

What we learned

We learned how to work in a team and divide tasks based on our teammate's skills. All of us worked with new API and learned how to adapt.

What's next for EcoWay Express

EcoWay Express could be migrated to work as an useful google chrome extension to promote awareness of the dangerous emission caused by transportation. This project could help people make the environmentally mindful choice.
