City-go-round: Open transit data for 89 cities
- fungi 17y agoNice one. If you put any Sydney timetable info up the nsw.gov.au will sue your ass... because they can't afford to fix public transport but they got lawyers crawling out of every orifice in their body.
- dmlorenzetti 17y agoThis site defines "data" rather narrowly, as "transit schedules." That's nice for commuters in that particular city, but a more expansive definition of data would include, e.g., how many trains came in on schedule, how many passengers on the train, where they got on and off, and so on. These in turn would allow a lot of interesting analyses-- comparing cities, studying how road networks interact with trains, looking for regional and seasonal variations, and so on.
