When it comes to map apps that can tell you how to get somewhere, there is no shortage. Amidst the wide array of navigation services available for public transportation, our group had noticed that there are none that focus on cost effectiveness. Therefore, we decided to make a software that helps those looking to save money on transportation, by finding a cheaper public transportation route to get from point A to B. Our software, written in python, interacts with the OneMap API to get the 4 fastest routes to travel from one point in Singapore to an other using public transport, deciphers the API output (which is in the form of a JSON dictionary) and outputs the route with the cheapest cost.
