The ios app that does fare estimation, waiting time estimation, availability estimation between Lyft and Uber. Co-authored by Edward Feng and Terrence Liu. The web version of this app can be found here: https://github.com/terrenceliu/Lyber The backend server of this app can be found here: https://github.com/terrenceliu/Lyber-express
Right now this app supports price range estimate, sorting by both price and waiting time, saving your common locations, and logging your previous requests. We've built a database on the backend server to store data about each request and estimate our users made, and we hope to push this app forward into a data science project by generating value with the data that we have.
