Station Outage Page:

• The Station Outage page can be accessed from clicking on the Terminal number of a station from the Status page or from the Outage History page.
• This page has a station specific navigation (2nd line).
• The calendar pickers only allows dates for which the system has data for the given station. (e.g. N Highland St & Wilson Blvd (#31022) was installed on 11/22, so it doesn’t allow date selection before that)
• This page is similar to the Outage History page, but it lists outages only for the given station.
• The table is sort-able, just click on one of the column headings.
• At the bottom of the page, there is a download link. This will download a .CSV copy of whatever data is being displayed above.
• PARAMETERS: You MUST pass in a station ID, as “id” which corresponds to the ID in the XML file. Optional parameters are s for start date, e for end date. For example, http://www.cabitracker.com/station_outage.php?id=86&s=2011-12-16&e=2012-01-16 will show outages for station 86 between 12/16 and 1/16.

Bike/Dock Availability (Station) Page:

• The Bike/Dock Availability page (aka Station page) shows the average number of bikes and docks at a given station for a given time period.
• The page has a calendar based date pair picker. This is the range of dates for which to average available bikes and docks. Only valid dates for the station are shown.
• There are two additional date-options, check-boxes for weekdays and weekends. If you un-check weekends and click Submit, you’ll see average data for weekdays only. If you un-check weekdays, vice versa. This is useful when trying to identify “commuter stations” by allowing you to ignore what happens to the station on the weekends.
• There are two additional check-boxes, for bikes and docks. Whichever ones are checked will be display on the chart. If both are checked, you have the option to stack the two lines using the button. Click the button again to un-stack the lines. These two check-boxes and the stack button operate on the data instantly.
• PARAMETERS: You MUST pass in a station ID, as “id” which corresponds to the ID in the XML file. Optional parameters are as follows:
  • s for start date
  • e for end date
  • we, as true or false, for whether to include weekends
  • wd, as true or false, for whether to include weekdays
  • For example, http://www.cabitracker.com/station.php?id=86&s=2011-12-16&e=2012-01-16&we=false&wd=true will show bikes/docks for station 86 between 12/16 and 1/16, showing weekdays, but not weekends. (This view shows that the station at 19th & L St NW (#31224) is a “commuter station”).

Kyle, I think you should create a new post with this information, as it deserves its own space. I’ll even have some stuff to add to it.
