Walkscore is a website that lets you determine the “walkability” of a location by showing what types of businesses and services are nearby. Walkscore also includes a location’s proximity to public transportation. Visit their website to see how this works and add transit system data.
Google Transit Datafeed is similar to Walkscore. Adding data will allow your transit system to be included in Google Apps.
