How tibs presents community-submitted data
tibs is built around rider-submitted signals, so transparency matters: riders should know what data is fresh, what is location-derived, and what is still unverified.
Some data comes directly from reports, some from route context, and some from map overlays. tibs surfaces all three together, but they do not carry the same level of certainty.
Transparency helps riders interpret what they are seeing: a new alert might be timely but lightly verified, while a corridor summary might be broad but less specific than a vehicle-linked report.
Key points
- Fresh does not always mean verified.
- Vehicle, stop, and corridor signals are different layers.
- Transparency helps riders decide how much weight to give each signal.
