General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS)
You can see the data in action using Open Trip Planner otp.transportforcairo.com. OTP will be available until the 8th of March 2016.
The General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) defines a common format for public transportation schedules and associated geographic information. GTFS "feeds" allow public transit agencies to publish their transit data and developers to write applications that consume that data in an interoperable way.
agency.txt One or more transit agencies that provide the data in this feed. stops.txt Individual locations where vehicles pick up or drop off passengers. routes.txt Transit routes. A route is a group of trips that are displayed to riders as a single service. trips.txt Trips for each route. A trip is a sequence of two or more stops that occurs at specific time. stop_times.txt Times that a vehicle arrives at and departs from individual stops for each trip. calendar.txt Dates for service IDs using a weekly schedule. Specify when service starts and ends, as well as days of the week where service is available. calendar_dates.txt Exceptions for the service IDs defined in the calendar.txt file. shapes.txt Rules for drawing lines on a map to represent a transit organization's routes. frequencies.txt Headway (time between trips) for routes with variable frequency of service. feed_info.txt Additional information about the feed itself, including publisher, version, and expiration information.
This schema shows how the GTFS files are connected to each other.
All data related to schedules and dates are estimations.
