Hi,
could someone shine some light on how does OBA how actual/real-time location of vehicle. When comparing data coming from TransitClock and OneBusAway, one can observe differences in vehicle location - it seems TC is always using real-time and actual location, while OBA uses some predicted method, sometimes as far as 2,5km away from actual position.
I will try to add screenshots, when we catch such situation, but in the meantime, could anyone confirm/deny and point to the place in code?
