Hi Would it be possible to import the bus stops from the Translink GTFS file -  http://translink.com.au/about-translink/open-data. I can prepare it technically but I cant see exactly how the data is licenced (http://translink.com.au/about-translink/open-data/terms-and-conditions) but is seems to

Hi, I think that would be the ideal if the licensing could be sorted out. I've noted some other bus stops have a Translink ID and links to the Translink page for that stop. Would the data have shelter info? Is it possible to integrate the real time transit feed into OSM's main slippy map? Thanks,

Hi guys, We have permission. If there are able resources with the know-how then a page for a State-wide import already exists. Its current status is that it hasn't been presented to the @imports list yet but it is quite close (If you're importing en-masse then it needs to go through this process

Hi all, I think for now preparing the import is beyond me. I guess for now don't bother adding or updating bus stops? Thanks, David On Wed, Jan 13, 2016 at 1:03 PM Jason Ward wrote: > Hi guys, > > We have permission. If there are able resources with the know-how then a > page for a State-wide

Hi David, Imports are tough but I'd still be adding bus stops as you have been. If or when the import occurs it would deal with existing stops in a logical way so the work individuals have done will not be wasted. It would in fact be treated with a higher level of trust in the context of the TMR

Hallo, In Belgium we also did an import of all bus stops during the past months [1]. However, we did notice that several bus stops were in a different location [2], up to 650 meters from where the public transport company thought they were. I don't know the quality of this data set, but it is stil

Hi Marc, Thanks. I too suspect their data is going to be dodgy. In a way we'll probably end up doing them a favour by having more accurate data than they have officially. Thanks, David On Wed, Jan 13, 2016 at 2:26 PM Marc Gemis wrote: > Hallo, > > In Belgium we also did an import of all bus st
