Reconstruction of public transport state

Interest towards the applications of ICT in public and private urban transport has grown significantly over the last few years. In the field of the user interfaces with transportation, however, continuous, highly context-aware, real time interaction can still be found only in a very limited number of cases, mostly in private transportation. One of the main issues in actually developing an assistive, portable, continuously interacting application is getting to know the transports system state (equations of motion of the means, position of the users on the means). In most cities the most temporally accurate data available is the estimated departure time of the next train or bus at the stops.
