Metro Hack Night IX

Metro Hack Night is a show & tell of Metro-related apps and data visualizations. We are happy to once again be hosted by WMATA in their headquarters (just past the lobby). Doors open at 6:00, and the program kicks off at 6:30. Be sure to bring an ID, and please arrive a bit early, as everyone will have to have IDs checked and pass through the metal detectors.

Contact Michael (https://www.meetup.com/Transportation-Techies/members/10550542/) if you have coded a project about Metro(rail), using their API, open data sets, or any other data you can find. To build your own Metro apps, hacks, and visualizations, find WMATA's open data via PlanItMetro's data-download (http://planitmetro.com/tag/data-download/) tag, or use their developer tools (https://developer.wmata.com/).
