1. Building on GTFS U.S. and international case studies for transit planning and transit operations Kevin Webb, Conveyal

3. Mexico City Prior to project, no city-wide transit data of any kind. Project used GTFS as a framework to coordinate data collection and produce a unified, city-wide transit data product.

5. Mexico City By the numbers: – Six transit operators – 129 routes – 5215 stops – Six weeks of effort to collect, validate and release a data product

7. Mexico City Public benefit: thanks to open standards, within hours of the public data release multiple commercial providers offered journey planning and transit information services. Operational benefit: simple and effective framework for coordinating data collection and distribution within government.

8. Mexico City Fundamentally, it’s not just a map of transit infrastructure. It’s a working model of transport, and a framework for collaboration.

10. New York City Demonstrated use of GTFS to model transport accessibility impact of Hurricane Sandy Able to release rider communication tools and analysis using GTFS within hours

11. NYC: Normal Service

12. NYC: post-Sandy Service

13. NYC: Percent Change

14. Paris Used GTFS to model and communicate accessibility changes from a new circumferential route.

15. Paris: GP15

18. Spreading phenomenon GTFS now produced by/for over 1,200 cities Currently piloted as a national data standard for transport planning in China A legally mandated framework for performance evaluation and operator coordination in Brazil
