Google map is especially good for travel/tourism because how well it handles public transportation, how long it takes, how much it cost, different routes etc.

Didn't even think about that because I live in America and mostly tour around rural areas with no public transportation lol

It should be "easily" implemented in organic maps though. Google in my country just connects to the official api of the main transportation company

American here: What's a transportation company? (I jest, but seriously, probably hundreds of thousands of transportation companies.)

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sure thing. I checked and openstreetmaps supports the Oslo transport system. But idk how google deals with everyone.

Google publishes an API for different transit agencies to follow. If you can parse that, you'll have the same information Google has.

Note that not all transit agencies provide the same data.
