Welcome to the osm2gtfs wiki, here you can learn how to use osm2gtfs for your city.

To generate a GTFS the program downloads the data about public transportation from OpenStreetMap and then merges it with time information, which need to be provided. Schedule information isn't supposed to be entered in OpenStreetMap.

There are two basic steps you need to check, in order to get this to work for any particular place:

  • Configuration: A file containing instructions on where to download and which OpenStreetMap tags to select route relations from a mapped public transport. Also defining some basic meta information about the transport agency and the GTFS publisher.

  • Development: Usually, for each city some adjustments need to be made. Fortunately, osm2gtfs allows to override different parts of the GTFS creation. So it can be extended flexible to fit any city's special needs. It also means, that you probably have to code - at least a bit - to get it to work.
