Detailed Specifications
### Problem Statement
Collegiate campuses cover extensive terrain with thousands of students moving between lectures within tight 10-15 minute windows. Existing maps lack real-time bus telemetry, elevation profiles for wheelchair access, and micro-mobility battery station availability.
### Proposed Solution
EcoRoute unifies campus shuttle GPS feeds with live IoT bike racks and crowd-sourced crowd density data. The platform calculates optimal multimodal paths, predicts bus arrival bottlenecks, and calculates carbon savings per student commute.
### Technology Stack & Architecture
- Frontend: Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Leaflet/Mapbox GL
- Backend: Supabase PostgreSQL, PostGIS for geospatial queries, Edge Functions
- Telemetry: MQTT broker ingesting university shuttle GPS feeds
- Microservices: Route calculation using contraction hierarchies
### What We Are Building Next
We are completing the mobile-first Progressive Web App (PWA) client and need collaborators to implement Bluetooth beacon check-ins and clean map overlays.
