That is something that OSM should map instead of the official timetable :) In Paris it is almost the same case, the bus does not follow their official timetable due to grid locks. Julien « djakk » Le mer. 7 nov. 2018 à 00:16, Martin Koppenhoefer a écrit : > > > sent from a phone > > > On 6.

For example in Japan transit companies sells their timetable for about 1000€ ... maybe copying the timetable is forbidden but Osm can have at least an opening hour and a frequency for a line in Japan. An other example, the city of Accra (Ghana) : only share taxis, no transit authority, lines are

I've been following along the few threads to better understand this topic, however I'm still feeling that mapping complex timetables is a bit like mapping the full menu of a cafe or restaurant, or the room options at a hotel. These things vary whenever the service business chooses and it is close

Hi I have worked in data analysis for many years, recently become interested in PT and added routes to my locality. I look at PT timetables frequently as much of my travel is by PT. My use case is that I want to find times and routes from A to B, I do not know the route numbers or their

Almost that ! Sometimes bus stops does not have their official timetable, the user have to refer to the closest previous bus stop having an official timetable. So this kind of bus stop may not have a timetable in osm (except an osm mapper really wants to put it into osm, knowing per habits the

I don’t get it ... With my point of view, one route with 15 stops has 15 timetables, each timetable describes the arrival time and the departure time of several trips at the stop. There must be the same number of trips along the stops’ timetables. (Otherwise this is an other route). You mean,

I think it is important to have an osm object describing the timetable user-oriented for simple editing without any tool. The mapper is at a bus stop, takes a picture of the timetable, can import it later in osm without the need of any extra tool. Validator can be inside a tool. Julien « djakk »
