Description

For evaluating existing solutions / to test own development we require actual data sets.

From a very initial glance, the data format to go seems to be GTFS. This ticket is supposed to track progress on data source exploration.

For Parsing GTFS feeds, @daniel-j-h proposed to look at:

GTFS transit feed specification, examples, ecosystem:
https://developers.google.com/transit/gtfs/#overview-of-a-gtfs-feed
https://github.com/google/transit/tree/master/gtfs-realtime
