How to Monitor Your Commute with Grafana
summary
Built with Grafana and live feeds, a commuter dashboard aggregates real-time bus locations (lat/long points that animate on the map), freeway congestion metrics, weather, and streaming video from city traffic cameras so commute time swings of ~25 to 60 minutes become visible at a glance. It pulls public transit vehicle GPS, shows moving dots on panels, uses live congestion metrics to compare driving versus taking train or bus, and works reliably enough to win community votes and a Golden Grot award.
