#transitous — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #transitous, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Made some more progress on the implementation of the “stoptimes” API from MOTIS in Maps.
    Now actually showing departures (or arrivals) in the place details when clicking on a “public transit-type“ place (station etc.), when there's data available in Transitous.
    The rows still only shows the transit mode icon and line number/name (e.g. missing time, destination and so on…)

  2. Cool that Transitous now has schedule data for transit in Tbilisi, Georgia. In a couple of weeks it's exactly 15 years ago I was there on a work trip just about a month after started working for PrimeKey!

    Would be kinda nice to visit again.

    (I wanted to get a trip with one of the gondola (aerial way) lines for the screenshot, but got no results for that (I think they should be in the timetable data)

  3. Experimenting with showing platform information for the public transit itineraries in Maps (when available from datasets).
    Maybe these labels spelling out "Departing from…" and so on are a bit "wordy"…

  4. Very early PoC implementing the “stoptimes” endpoint in MOTIS in Maps for (eventually) displaying departures/arrivals for public transit stations/stops from Transitous

    gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-m

  5. Just rolled the RC tarballs for Maps and libshumate for the upcoming GNOME 50 relase

    gnome-maps 50.rc
    libshumate 1.6.rc

    Changes include support for getting localized results for public transit routing (using Transitous).

  6. Now that the new release of MOTIS with translation support has been deployed for Transitous, I implemented support for passing the language of user's locale(s) to the API.
    This shows an itinerary rendered in Japanese and in the second example with romanized names (this relies on translation.txt being present in the corresponding GTFS feed data, though).

  7. Just tagged Maps 50.alpha and libshumate 1.6.alpha for GNOME 50:

    Containing, among others, the new sidebar redesign, public transit journey redesign, using Transitous for all public transit routingm, and porting of UI templates to Blueprint for Maps.

    And for libshumate the option to compile without the vector renderer has been removed, the vector renderer has gained support for "global-state" expressions.

  8. Did a talk about Transitous at Update Computer Club today (in Swedish) (also mentioning some clients implemeting the API, such as )

  9. Now with the latest MOTIS releases we can run pre-processing Lua scripts on GTFS feed data in Transitous.

    I added a script to add route colors to some of the routes in the Swedish national feed from Trafiklab. Also set the route type for Landskrona's bus route 3 to trolley bus.

  10. Here's an overview of the public transport data that goes into #Transitous via #GTFS, #GBFS and #OSM, and how you can help to extend this in your region: volkerkrause.eu/2025/06/14/tra

    Any improvement there benefits applications like #GNOME Maps, #KDE Itinerary or #Träwelling.

  11. More train and bus trip editing capabilities, a new departure view, #OpenRailwayMap integration and a ton of new features in #Transitous - the past two months around #KDE Itinerary: volkerkrause.eu/2025/05/31/kde

    @kde

  12. Just rolled the stable releases for GNOME 48
    GNOME Maps 48: download.gnome.org/sources/gno
    libshumate 1.4.0: download.gnome.org/sources/lib

    And also 47.5 for Maps with a cherry-pick for the update to use Transitous for public transit routing in Finland (due to Digitransit sunsetting the old OpenTripPlanner 1.x API in April).

    And now rest and fika for the rest of the day 😀

  13. #ÖPNV-Fahrplandaten aus der ganzen Welt…

    Beim nächsten #OpenTransportMeetup stellt Isabelle de Robert die #MobilityData #MobilityDatabase und den Canonical #GTFS Schedule Validator vor. Außerdem zeigen #JonahBrüchert und #FelixGündling, wie das Projekt #transitous GTFS-Daten weltweit sammelt und verarbeitet, um Open-Source-Routingdienste bereitzustellen. Nächsten Mittwoch 20 Uhr.

  14. Public Transit Schedule Data from all around the world... At the next #OpenTransportMeetup, Isabelle de Robert will present #MobilityData #MobilityDatabase and Canonical #GTFS Schedule Validator, and #JonahBrüchert and #FelixGündling will present how the #transitous project retrieves and processes GTFS data from around the world to provide open source routing services

  15. @awinkler for which region? For car only routing there exist several (#graphhopper, #osrm, #valhalla ), for transit routing, data availability is still an issue. The #transitous project is the largest free instance I‘m aware of. For smaller regions, you might self-host e.g. an #OpenTripPlanner or #MOTIS instance transitous.org/

  20. Implementing the updated MOTIS v2 API in Maps
    Still incomplete, as can be seen by the JS stacktraces due to loads of missing stuff…

  21. @bobjonkman @trouble the GTFS standard nowadays is maintained by #mobilitydata. You find the specs at gtfs.org . There are a couple of catalogues trying to collect all available feeds, eg transitland, the #transitous project, #mobilitydata
