Desarrollo de prototipo de aplicación móvil de geolocalización para el transporte público - DMQ.

Abstract

The objective of this degree project is to develop a prototype of a mobile application with the capacity to provide information on public transport in the Metropolitan District of Quito (DMQ), the users of the application will be able to see enough information on the routes of the buses of their interest to move from one place to another without any setback, especially when they are unaware of the circuits that certain buses travel, they will be able to find out in detail the complete routes and decide which is best for when they want to travel to a destination. The agile framework Scrum and Flutter have been used as the development framework for this work, the latter can reuse code to ensure the operation of cross-platform mobile applications, i.e., thanks to this flexibility, we will allow the mobile application developed to be accessible to users with both Android and IOS operating systems. The main objective of the mobile application follows the concept of geolocation, which will be applied to always know the routes of public transport units when the user requires it, for this we will use the Google Maps API, which will serve as a complement that will provide a widget that will display a map on the screen. and to store the information generated we chose to use Firebase Realtime Database, which is a database in the cloud with the ability to synchronize the data of each connected client.
