This thread is full of people linking similar projects for different locations. The next step must be to combine it all to a global live map. Useful for... something, I'm sure.
The nest step would be to map every human. Shouldn't be too hard, there are only 8B of us.
Similar real time traffic map for Switzerland https://maps.trafimage.ch/ch.sbb.netzkarte?baselayers=ch.sbb... >

It has a live map of public transport around the world, mostly showing the actual vehicle positions (although we interpolate from the estimated arrivals for some European operators). You can also click on vehicles (trains, buses, ferries, etc) to see their past and predicted future arrivals, click on a station to see its departure board, or click on a line to see its variants.
Awesome! Looking at the metro stop near me here in Brussels, the trains seemed stuck for a while at the station. Not impossible this was just real :) Great way to admire the density and connectivity of our public transport!!
For Deutsche Bahn it will be just a photo....

This is a simulated map based on published transit schedules. As I’m typing this I sit on a bus that’s nowhere to be seen on the map.
Transit telemetry is inherently spotty on these public-facing applications. If it's like other systems, it will resort to transit schedule estimations when data is missing and then try to sync as live data becomes available.
