Event Details

The MassDOT Developers holiday party is coming up next Tuesday, December 8th.  The Rattlesnake has been gracious enough to allow us to use their space for the party.  There will be a cash bar and we hope to see all of you there!  This event is intended to be both a holiday get together and a chance for Developers to highlight the great applications they have built these last few months (we are sorry we only had the time to recognize four projects at the Conference).

If you would like to present an application or visualization using our data, please email me at joshua.robin@state.ma.us.  Each developer will have three minutes to highlight his or her application, web site, visualization, or ideas.  The only requirement is that applications, visulizations, websites, etc must use our data.  We are especially interested in highlighting the following:

  • Applications that use the Real Time XML Feed launched at the MassDOT Developers Conference.
  • Applications that work on platforms beyond the iPhone, including Android, Blackberry, Palm Web OS, Windows Mobile, desktop applications and beyond.  As was noted at the conference, it is important for applications to serve as many populations as possible for this effort to succeed.
  • Applications that are accessible through a simple text message.
  • Applications that enhance the accessibility of the MBTA.
  • Applications that help highway travelers and help MassDOT with congestion, incident response, customer service, and mobility as requested by Secretary Mullan (Follow him on Twitter @massDOT).
Please let us know if there is anything you think we can do better moving forward and remember that our Google Group is a resource to all using our data.

Looking forward to seeing you December 8th!
