Microsoft New England R&D Center One Memorial Drive Cambridge, MA United States Nov 5, 2009 Permalink Webcast: Open Transportation Data in One Hour For many years, transportation agencies and authorities have given out thousands of free copies of paper maps and schedules. However, transportation agencies often resist sharing the data behind those maps and schedules.

This data has been used by smart, innovative software developers to build applications that benefit transportation users, travelers, and riders. This effort provides a window into the possibilities created by open data.
