Hi all,
In August, we had a pretty significant accomplishment for the GTFS-realtime spec - there is now an official v2.0!
I wanted to share a short article I wrote that highlights the importance of v2.0, especially in terms of data quality:
I'd encourage everyone to start publishing v2.0 feeds as soon as possible!
From a developer/consumer perspective, you can also start using the open-source GTFS-realtime validation tool we've been working on to check v2.0 (and v1.0) feeds for errors:
Please let me know if you have any comments or questions!
(Also, apologies for cross-posting)
Thanks,
Sean
