What is GTFS?
The General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) is a standard format for sharing public transport information. Schedule datasets describe agencies, routes, stops, trips and service times in related text files. A consistent dataset helps journey planning services and other mobility applications understand the transport network.
Bring routes, stops and schedules together
A route is useful to passengers when its stops, trips and operating days form a consistent timetable. GTFS planning connects these pieces so that network changes can be reflected across the dataset. Open the movinton GTFS Editor to explore the editing workflow for your public transport data.
Connect planning with passenger information
GTFS data supports the distribution of route and schedule information across passenger channels. Within the wider movinton platform, GTFS and data integrations work alongside passenger information systems and fleet operations. This helps agencies maintain a common source for the information shared with riders and operational teams.
Distinguish schedules from real-time information
GTFS Schedule describes planned services, while GTFS Realtime represents changing operational information such as trip updates and vehicle positions. Real-time publication requires the relevant data sources and integration scope. Discuss these requirements separately from schedule editing when planning your transit data infrastructure.
