I'll crack out the code and figure out why it's not working -- it looks like a GoSync issue so far. Ultimately I like their approach of being able to re-sync with new GTFS exports as they become available. Much nicer than manually merging. Thanks for the offer on help with the data; I'll let you know if I run into any problems with the data. The shelter and bench data would definitely be useful to export; these are attributes that can be included along with the stop data in OSM. I imagine a simple extension to GTFS would be sufficient. Really all I'd need is a list of stop id and feature pairs. Thanks, Tyler ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

Sound like anybody you know? ;-) I suppose for once there is an advantage to living in Winnipeg. :) Tyler ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

While I can't speak to the quality of any of the GTFS importers, GO_Sync looks pretty comprehensive, and our GTFS feed should contain all of the data they mention. If you or somebody else does end up trying some of the importers and either have questions about or run into any issues with the data, I can try to resolve them. We also have an internal inventory of amenities like benches and shelters provided at each stop, but we don't export that yet via either our API or GTFS feed (though I'm open to suggestions on what formats to use for this data if it would be useful to export it). - Doug ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

I was thinking of using GTFS/OSM Sync (http://code.google.com/p/gtfs-osm-sync/ ) to bring the data in for Winnipeg.
