Public Transit Route

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

In this guide you will learn how to compute and render a public transit route on an interactive map centered on the route. The map is fully 3D, supporting pan, pinch-zoom, rotate and tilt.

Setup​

  1. Get your Magic Lane API key token: if you do not have a token, see the Getting Started guide.
  2. See the Setup Maps SDK for iOS guide.
  3. Download the PublicTransitCalculateRoute project example or clone the project with Git.
  4. Extract/unpack the MapView project archive to a folder/directory of your choice. You can create a new directory where to unpack it.

Open the Project​

Studio

Start Xcode, and in the welcome dialog, choose Open an existing project.
