Hi everyone, I recently sent an RFC to the tagging list about a new public transport timetables proposal. Does anyone here have any suggestions for improving the proposal?
The proposal has three parts: 1) A new tag, "interval", for describing how often trains or buses run on a route. Added to the route relation. 2) A new set of tags to add to a ferry route that will provide complete timetable data for both directions. This is very useful for navigation applications using OSM data. 3) A new type of relation that will contain both a platform and a route relation as members, and have the tag "departures"="<departure times for a single route at a single platform>". This new relation is easy to remove (in case it is outdated and wrong) and does not affect existing OSM transit data. Each timetable relation is basically a separate "file" that contains a timetable, a route, and a stop. Example timetable relation: * https://www.osm.org/relation/8873463 Wiki page for the proposal: * https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Public_transport_schedules Thanks, Leif Rasmussen
