Frequency-based trips #408
Comments
Investigate multiplying-trips vs. internally supporting frequency.txt based trips. |
I would suggest taking a look at OpenTripPlanner, as they've dealt with this same question. I haven't delved into the code myself, but a student from our group did some prototyping in OpenTripPlanner for supporting frequency-based |

Are you all currently supporting frequency-based |
My current concept is to describe frequency-based trips using "ScheduleStopPair" attributes "frequency_headway_seconds", "frequency_start_time", and "frequency_end_time", with arrival & departure times relative to the start of the trip. I don't currently have a flag for For example, an SSP with frequency_headway_seconds=600, frequency_start_time=08:00:00, and origin_departure_time=00:05:00 would result in departures at 08:05, 08:15, 08:25, etc. We've been discussing this lately, and I welcome any feedback and suggestions. |
@irees I'm not very familiar with the internal data model of transitland, but what you describe seems to make sense for feeds with However, This has a lot of implications when you start getting into user-facing information, such as answering the question "when is my bus expected to arrive?" For This seems to be a subtle difference, but in creating a GTFS-rt frequency-based |
@irees the one final step that can happen on another issue: adding mention of the new frequency attributes to the SSP docs: https://github.com/transitland/www-transit-land/issues/274 |
Frequency-based schedules are now supported in the datastore & in routing. |
@irees Nice! So what assumption does Valhalla make for the estimated wait time for the bus for a frequency-based |
Handle frequency.txt style trips, e.g.
