The Gas Station Guide (www.guiadepostos.com.br) is a collaborative platform developed to help Brazilian drivers find the best prices and evaluate the quality of fuels at gas stations throughout the country.
MAIN FEATURES
The application uses geolocation to automatically display the user's position on an interactive map, identifying nearby gas stations with detailed price information. The system allows viewing data on multiple types of fuels, including regular ethanol, regular gasoline, regular diesel, CNG, and premium versions.
Each marker on the map provides access to strategic information about the establishment: gas station name, updated prices, history of fines by the ANP (National Petroleum Agency), user ratings, and community comments. The interface features visual legends that facilitate the quick identification of the most economical gas stations and those that have already been inspected and fined for irregularities.
ADVANCED FILTER SYSTEM
The filter menu allows you to segment results by specific fuel type or brand (Petrobras, Ipiranga, Shell, Texaco, Esso, Others, and establishments with a history of fines). This feature optimizes the search according to the individual preferences of the consumer.
COMMUNITY COLLABORATION
As a collaborative platform, any user can contribute by updating prices and information about gas stations. Registration can be done through the system itself or by integrating with a Facebook account. Users can favorite their preferred gas stations and participate in the voting system, contributing to the accuracy of the data presented.
