2) you select your destional upon tapping on specific location in maritius
3) it will tel u the route you need to take to got thier...eg by car, the km and the duration u will reach their
4) you may also wish to select to go by public bus, which will then retrieve the info from a database, about the bus schedule using the actual time, and tell you the bus fare

1)yes
2)yes
3)yes, given more then thousands applications on Android market
4)possible if public bus service has some interface you can communicate with, example TFL - Transport for London. This is however research you need to do on your own

You already got answer for this in following thread http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/mobile-development/threads/416500/android-project-ideas
