7 7  The two main parts of the MTA Bus Time system are the on-bus hardware and the MTA Bus Time server. Each of these was tailored to the project's needs and to meet the MTA's strategic technology goals. The simplest way to sum up those goals is "Open."

9 -The MTA BusTime system is open to external developers to create their own real-time bus applications using the Bus Time data feed. If you would like to learn more about developing applications using Bus Time, read more about the [[MTA Bus Time Developer API>>url:https://bustime.mta.info/wiki/Developers/Index]].

11 11  It is also open internally in the integration of the different technology components. This gives us flexibility as to who supplies the on-board hardware (which reports each bus's position), who maintains and improves the MTA BusTime server (which puts all the information together and responds to users' requests), and what other features the system can support in the future.

27 27  The server receives the information from each bus in the fleet and integrates it with map, route, and schedule data, along with previous updates. It then applies sophisticated inferential algorithms to determine whether the bus is in or out of service, what route it is serving (if any), and its direction of service. From these inferences, it then determines what stops that bus is going to make, how far the bus is from each stop, and predicts the bus’s time of arrival at each downstream stop.

29 -The server then makes this information available to users in a number of different ways: via a [[desktop web map>>url:https://bustime.mta.info/]], a [[mobile web site>>url:https://bustime.mta.info/m/]] , and [[via SMS>>url:https://bustime.mta.info/wiki/Help/TextIt]] on all mobile phones. It also provides an [[API>>url:https://bustime.mta.info/wiki/Developers/Index]] for developers to create their own applications and interfaces to use the Bus Time data.
