Overview

MOTIS is an open source routing engine that combines OpenStreetMap street data with GTFS public transport timetables to compute optimal multimodal itineraries. It serves a JSON routing API and a map based web interface, and powers large scale journey planners such as Transitous.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers MOTIS hardened and fully patched on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, preconfigured with a ready to explore sample dataset so the journey planner answers on first boot. The engine runs as a non root service behind a hardened reverse proxy, binds loopback only, and 24/7 support is included.

Common uses

  • Public transit journey planning
  • Multimodal routing APIs
  • Transit and mobility data apps
