This API is best for developers looking to integrate real-time Toronto Transit Commission vehicle tracking data into their applications.
A developer would use the MyTTC API to display real-time transit data in their application. With access to the API, developers can enable users to track the status and location of Toronto's transit vehicles, providing up-to-date information to help them plan their trips. The API can be used to create custom transit widgets, mobile apps, or web applications that include real-time transit data.
