Android: gTraffic NY
Here is gTraffic application modified to take NYSDOT traffic RSS feed.
This is a bit of an experiment but I am hoping someone might find it useful. I have split the NYSDOT feed into regions. The application filters the main RSS feed according to a centre point and a radius which I took from Wikipedia. The application is up on the market so if your from New York then download it and send me some feedback, I can take it.
Definitely my last Android traffic application for a while as I _really_ have to get on with another more pressing application.
On a different note I see that Doom has been launched on the Market. The key bindings are a bit hard to setup but it’s still pretty cool.
Update
I have removed the NY traffic application from the market. It was an interesting experiment and I managed to get some nice refinements for the UK traffic application from it but I have to view it as more hassle than it was worth. NYSDOT do update the feed but only to add severe incidents like accidents and the like, otherwise it just looks like the data is old. This seemed to confuse the users of the application.
