Frequency based transit trip characterizations
First Claim
1. A non-transitory machine readable medium storing a map application executable by at least one processing unit of a device, the map application comprising sets of instructions for:
- inputting a destination location;
identifying a position of the device based on data input from a position sensor;
identifying a navigation mode based in part on the position of the device;
if the navigation mode is a transit navigation mode, the map application further comprises sets of instructions for;
identifying a transit route between a starting location based on a position of the device and the destination location, the transit route comprising a set of transit legs, each serviced by transit vehicles of a transit line, and a set of walking distances;
categorizing the transit line as one of a first category and a second category based on a frequency of departure of transit vehicles of the transit line;
when the transit line is categorized as the first category, displaying a departure schedule in a frequency of departures format for (i) transit vehicles of the transit line from a first transit station of the transit leg serviced by the transit line, and (ii) an entire transit route; and
when the transit line is categorized as the second category, displaying the departure schedule in an absolute time format for the transit vehicles and the entire transit route.

Abstract
Some embodiments provide a map application that identifies a transit route between a starting location and a destination location. The transit route, in some embodiments, comprises a set of transit legs that each is serviced by transit vehicles of a transit line and a set of walking distances. The map application of some embodiments generates a frequency of departures for transit vehicles of each transit line in the set of transit lines from a first transit station of the transit leg that is serviced by the transit line. The map application of some such embodiments further generates a frequency of departures for the entire transit route.
