equal_shape_distance_same_coordinates

Two consecutive points have equal shape_dist_traveled and the same lat/lon coordinates in shapes.txt.

When sorted by shape.shape_pt_sequence, the values for shape_dist_traveled must increase along a shape. Two consecutive points with equal values for shape_dist_traveled and the same coordinates indicate a duplicative shape point.

You can see more about this notice here.

Only the first 50 of 429 affected records are displayed below.

shapeId (?) The id of the faulty shape. csvRowNumber (?) The row number from `shapes.txt`. shapeDistTraveled (?) Actual distance traveled along the shape from the first shape point to the faulty record. shapePtSequence (?) The faulty record's `shapes.shape_pt_sequence`. prevCsvRowNumber (?) The row number from `shapes.txt` of the previous shape point. prevShapeDistTraveled (?)

expired_calendar WARNING 1

expired_calendar

Dataset should not contain date ranges for services that have already expired.

This warning takes into account the calendar_dates.txt file as well as the calendar.txt file.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row of the faulty record. serviceId (?) The service id of the faulty record.
4 "51783.134015"
feed_expiration_date30_days WARNING 1

feed_expiration_date30_days

Dataset should cover at least the next 30 days of service.

At any time, the GTFS dataset should cover at least the next 30 days of service, and ideally for as long as the operator is confident that the schedule will continue to be operated.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. currentDate (?) Current date (YYYYMMDD format). feedEndDate (?) Feed end date (YYYYMMDD format). suggestedExpirationDate (?) Suggested expiration date (YYYYMMDD format).

route_long_name_contains_short_name WARNING 9

route_long_name_contains_short_name

Long name should not contain short name for a single route.

In routes.txt, route_long_name should not contain the value for route_short_name, because when both are provided, they are often combined by transit applications. Note that only one of the two fields is required. If there is no short name used for a route, use route_long_name only.

Good examples:

route_short_name/route_long_name Dataset
"N"/"Judah" Muni San Fransisco
"6"/"ML King Jr Blvd" Trimet Portland Streetcar
"55"/"Boulevard Saint Laurent" STM Montreal
"1"/"Rangiora/Cashmere" Metro Christchurch

Bad examples:

route_short_name/route_long_name
"604"/"604"
"14"/"Route 14"
"2"/"Route 2: Bellows Falls In-Town"

You can see more about this notice here.

routeId (?) The id of the faulty record. csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. routeShortName (?) The faulty record's `route_short_name`. routeLongName (?) The faulty record's `route_long_name`.

stop_too_far_from_shape WARNING 3

stop_too_far_from_shape

Stop too far from trip shape.

Per GTFS Best Practices, route alignments (in shapes.txt) should be within 100 meters of stop locations which a trip serves. This potentially indicates a problem with the location of the stop or the path of the shape.

You can see more about this notice here.

tripCsvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record from `trips.txt`. shapeId (?) The id of the shape that is referred to. tripId (?) The id of the trip that is referred to. stopTimeCsvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record from `stop_times.txt`. stopId (?) The id of the stop that is referred to. stopName (?) The name of the stop that is referred to. match (?) Latitude and longitude pair of the location. geoDistanceToShape (?) Distance from stop to shape.

stop_without_stop_time WARNING 26

stop_without_stop_time

A stop in stops.txt is not referenced by any stop_times.stop_id.

Such stops are not used by any trip and normally do not provide user value. This notice may indicate a typo in stop_times.txt.

You can see more about this notice here.

csvRowNumber (?) The row number of the faulty record. stopId (?) The id of the faulty stop. stopName (?) The name of the faulty stop.

stops_match_shape_out_of_order WARNING 2

stops_match_shape_out_of_order

Two stop entries are different than their arrival-departure order defined by shapes.txt.

This could indicate a problem with the location of the stops, the path of the shape, or the sequence of the stops for their trip.

You can see more about this notice here.
