This document discusses a proposed routing system for Kaohsiung City buses in Taiwan based on OpenStreetMap data. It provides an overview of Kaohsiung City, describes the first OSM mapping party in Taiwan in 2008, and notes the launch of the city's MRT system that same year. It outlines the components and architecture of the proposed bus routing system, including using Openlayers for the map and Django as the backend. It presents the tagging schema for bus stops and routes. It also covers future work such as improving the user interface, supporting other cities, making more data openly available, and researching better routing solutions.

21. Hubs
Assign hubs
automatically?

22. Future works
● Better user interface
● Front end in mobile devices
● Support to other cities, ex: Taipei, Taichung
● More data and make City Bus Administration to
Open Data
● Do some research to find the better solution for
routing
