Korea Subway Positioning System

Final Demo page

Overview

This is my experimental result about subway positioning system. In Korea, some local governments construct a bus positioning system and provide real time bus positions to public. It is really useful when you wait a bus in a bus station.

However, subway is a different story. I am pretty sure that a subway operator has a system which estimates where each subway is, because it shows when the next station arrives in a station inside.

But they do not provide any OpenAPI system so that 3rd party developers can make a useful application with real time positions of subways.

Therefore, I try to estimate a real time position of each subway. The idea is simple. A subway in Korea arrives at and departs from a station in time exactly in most cases. Using this timetable and positions of each station, we can estimate the positions of subways in that time. Here are my progresses.

  • Positions of junction stations which have more than one position are corrected by refineStationInfo.php (currently, the update behavior is blocked).

  • Smart UI is appended.
    • You can choose each subway line in which you want to check the current positions of subways.

    • Status (stop or remaining time for departing) of a train which stops at a station is displayed.
