How positions work in Switzerland

Swiss open data does not publish GPS positions for the trains. Sky Hub Cloud estimates where each train is from the timetable and Swiss real-time data, and the card says so. Swiss trains run very close to the timetable and the real-time data is updated often, so the train on the map is usually very close to the real one.

Where the data comes from

opentransportdata.swiss (Swiss public transport open data).

Beyond a journey planner

Your own pin and radius, from 0.5 km at a platform to 80 km across a region
TRAIN LOG: statistics for your spot, CSV download and a weekly report
The same plan includes Fly Radar and Ship Radar with Coast Explorer
