When friends plan a meal, the hard part is often not what to eat but where to meet. It tends to end up in Mong Kok or Causeway Bay again, and whoever lives furthest away has the longest ride every time. Meet-Point tries to help answer that question.
1Why this site exists
- People often pick a place everyone knows how to get to, which is not always a place that is fair to everyone.
- Public transport routes and timetables are published as open data, so the time from each person to each place can be worked out.
- So this site does the working out: say where each person starts, and it finds a place where even the person who travels longest does not travel too long.
2What we believe
- Fairness first: by default it does not look for the lowest average, but looks after whoever lives furthest away.
- Your details stay with you: the names and places you enter are processed inside your device. The site never receives them, and it runs no analytics or advertising scripts.
- Open data: the times come from timetable data published by the government and the community, with every source and licence listed.
- Plain about limits: the times are estimates and can be off; what is not covered (Sundays, overnight routes) is said plainly.
3What it is not
- Not a journey planner: for which bus or train to take, use the map apps under “Route details”.
- Not a commercial service: no ads, no accounts. It is a small community tool run by one person.
