How miscellaneous stuff are working

There are 5 mains services:

• "places" to autocomplete user input
• "journeys" to compute multi-modal trip
• "PTref" to easily explore public transport data
• "route_schedules" or "stop_schedules" to print time tables
• "departures" or "arrival" in order not to miss your next bus
• "traffic_reports" to expose the main perturbations or important messages

And some sexy other things such as "isochrones".

places

This service is based on a 3-grams algorithm. Here is the different phases of searching

1. init
2. ghost word management (such as "in", "the", "on"...)
3. alias management
4. house number management
5. 3-grams on words that remain
