5. Visualizing the data

Static data and relatime combined

Using 'multiple entity row' card

Vehicle positions

When vehcile positions have been added to the configuration, a geojson file is created in your wwww/gtfs2 folder You can create entities with position, using the geojson integration, refering to that file

important: filename is case sensitive

Example geojson entity:

Note: to make the entity unique, the name of the entity is a combination of the route 'B', the direction '(0)' and the last 3 digites of the trip_id

Then you can configure a Map card to show the positions of active vehicles along that route

Note: geojson currently only updates each 5 minutes and can not be refreshed by a service call

Local stops and departures

Local stops and departures: filtering certain routes

Note: I cannot get this to work with flex-table-card

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: entities
    entities:
      - entity: input_text.local_stops_filter
  - type: markdown
    content: >-
      <table>  {% set next =
      state_attr('sensor.01254_0608400_local_stop_person_abcd','next_departures_lines')%}
      {% for i in range(0, next | count, 1) %} {%- if
      state_attr('sensor.01254_0608400_local_stop_person_abcd','next_departures_lines')[i].route 
        == states("input_text.local_stops_filter") -%}

Local stops: travelling solution

I tied the update to my person. entity and when I move around I click two buttons to see what is near me

• Location update (just in case it is not updating fast enough)
• Local stops update: this updates every entity with local stops tied to my name, I have this setup for France, Switzerland and Netherlands. The map nicely follows me around and adds the stops
