When you use your Oyster on a bus, how and when does that information
get back to the main database? Does the bus radio it in, does the card
itself relay the data when it's next used on a connected reader, or is
there some other mechanism?

There is another mechanism. It doesn't involve the radio.


Is it real-time?
