Contributing to or interested in #Transitous? Then join us at the first Transitous Hack Weekend in July in Berlin! https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/05/17/transitous-upcoming-hack-weekend-july-2025.html
#transitous is also a very cool #opensource map and route planning tool for #publictransport.
I don't know if you already know #transitous but if you don't it is worth to have a look at it. It's some kind of routing system #freesoftware based mainly on open protocols as well as some APIs.
It combines every kind of public transport to route, sometimes you need to check how to write start and destination, but it is anyway amazing. You can check it on https://transitous.org/
Its library or API is also used by other apps I also use such as #Ktrip and #Kitinerary, or others like GnomeMaps
Ich hab mich heute bisschen mehr in #Transitous eingelesen/eingehört. https://transitous.org/
Find echt super, dass da die Inititative ergriffen wurde und muss jetzt schauen, ob und wie ich mich da einbringen kann.
Und auch großen Respekt an @traewelling, wie schnell da hin gewechselt wurde.
Some of my notes on #OSM indoor navigation, #Transitous and #OpenTransport from last week's #FOSSGIS2025: https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/04/05/osm-fossgis-conference-2025.html
Localized units, DOSIPAS ticket barcode support, GBFS support in #Transitous and a bunch of conference talks - the past two months around #KDE Itinerary: https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/03/30/kde-itinerary-february-march-2025.html
The video recording of my #FOSSGIS2025 talk about #Transitous (in German) is available here: https://pretalx.com/fossgis2025/talk/TJVVDZ/
Im dritten Talk des Routing-Tracks präsentiert @VolkerKrause das #transitous Projekt, einen internationalen, community-betriebenen Routing-Dienst auf Basis des FOSS-Routers #MOTIS. #fossgis2025
On the way to Münster for #FOSSGIS2025 with a packed schedule: I'll talk about #Transitous (https://pretalx.com/fossgis2025/talk/TJVVDZ/) and co-chair the Open Transport Meetup (https://pretalx.com/fossgis2025/talk/GQK9KU/) and Indoor #OSM Meetup (https://pretalx.com/fossgis2025/talk/DSHE3R/).
Rolled a couple of patch releases today for the stable branches…
Maps 48.1 and 47.6
Fixes an issue where timestamps where calculated with incorrect offset for the itinerary results for public transit routing with Transitous. This was spotted by Michael Catanzaro, thanks to the US being already on DST 😀
Just rolled the stable releases for GNOME 48
GNOME Maps 48: https://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-maps/48/
libshumate 1.4.0: https://download.gnome.org/sources/libshumate/1.4/
And also 47.5 for Maps with a cherry-pick for the update to use Transitous for public transit routing in Finland (due to Digitransit sunsetting the old OpenTripPlanner 1.x API in April).
And now rest and fika for the rest of the day 😀

TIL che il formato per i feed statici e in tempo reale dei trasporti pubblici è standardizzato. Ci sta questo progetto collettivo chiamato #Transitous[1] che fornisce una sua web app ma anche API gratuite e attinge da molti servizi[2] italiani tra cui ANM, EAV, ATM, Trenord e Trenitalia (Toscana)

Here's what I did at last week's #OSM Hack Weekend in Karlsruhe: https://volkerkrause.eu/2025/02/22/osm-hack-weekend-karlsruhe-february-2025.html #KDE #Transitous
#ÖPNV-Fahrplandaten aus der ganzen Welt…
Beim nächsten #OpenTransportMeetup stellt Isabelle de Robert die #MobilityData #MobilityDatabase und den Canonical #GTFS Schedule Validator vor. Außerdem zeigen #JonahBrüchert und #FelixGündling, wie das Projekt #transitous GTFS-Daten weltweit sammelt und verarbeitet, um Open-Source-Routingdienste bereitzustellen. Nächsten Mittwoch 20 Uhr.
