I am developing an Application, which should give the available taxi or cabs at the current location in the city, here, what i have done is, i found the current location(address) using Reverse CLGeocoder. To get the available resources, whether i should make use of any api, or something else. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

There is no available API as far I know.. you can get in touch with cab providers in your location and ask them to provide feeds about their cabs. Then you can create a centralized server which will give you the response.
The idea is good but you will need some investors on your side and some expertise with server set up and a marketing guy who can rope in all these cab providers.

Thanks for ur reply, I'm having doubt here, App users might be in various locations and in several cities, then how could i collect the information and setup the server to retrieve and display the info gathered. – jireh Jun 18 '12 at 05:34

you will need info from various cities , so what you can do is start from a couple of cities and if things go well you can extend this to other cities – Ankit Srivastava Jun 18 '12 at 05:48
