Samtrafiken Noptis to GTFS-RT mapping

This page describes how Samtrafiken maps Noptis data (see https://www.noptis.com/) to GTFS-realtime data. For a complete specification of the GTFS-realtime format, see http://gtfs.org/reference/realtime/v1/.

id

If entity contains field trip_update, then:

  • DatedVehicleJourney.Id

If entity contains field vehicle, then:

  • Position.Nr (where Position refers to a POSROI message)

If entity contains field alert, then:

  • DeviationMessageVersion.Id

trip_update

See section “Message: TripUpdate”.

vehicle

See section “Message: VehiclePosition”.

alert

See section “Message: Alert”.

Message: TripUpdate

File: TripUpdates.pb

When trip updates are generated, stop time updates with departure or arrival times that are considered too old are excluded. A departure/arrival is considered too old if the vehicle left the stop 10 minutes ago.
