Case Study: Glasgow City Council makes Glasgow more cycle-friendly with Add Jam's Smart City app

Glasgow City Council launches Glasgow Cycling app in 4 weeks with Add Jam

Add Jam collaborated with Glasgow City Council on their Future City Programme. The customer's challenge was to reduce carbon-based transportation and make Glasgow a more cycle-friendly city, requiring a way to collect cycling data and encourage active travel among residents.

The solution implemented by Add Jam was the rapid development of a cycling API using Ruby on Rails and a companion iOS app to track and find routes. Through iterative improvements based on community feedback, Add Jam created a user-friendly product that generated useful open data and included a real-time dashboard, contributing to Glasgow's goal of becoming a leading cycling city.
