Abstract

Explore the Esri StoryMap Tour highlighting the creation of individual vector transit routes for OC Transpo, the City of Ottawa's public transit agency between 1929 and 2021. The StoryMap illustrates the two processes used to compile these route datasets and touches on the various resources used in the past and the ones that are currently in use. Also provided are information on the final products, such as attribute information, file format as well as information on how to access them.
