Transportation — entry 054 of 69
Transport for Sao Paulo, Brazil
The Olho Vivo API is SPTrans' RESTful JSON feed of real-time bus positions, routes, and stop arrival predictions for the Sao Paulo municipal bus network. Registered applications get a token that must first be exchanged via a POST to Login/Autenticar before any data call succeeds, with the resulting session cookie required on subsequent requests — not the OAuth flow the stored entry previously claimed.
