It is comprised of two main sections. + +The first section describes what GTFS is and provides details about the +specification itself. In addition to this it also provides various +discussion points and things to consider for each of the files in the +specification. + +The second section covers a number of topics that relate to actually +using GTFS feeds, such as how to calculate fares, how to search for +trips, how to optimize feed data and more. + +This book is written for developers that are using transit data for web +sites, mobile applications and more. It aims to be as language-agnostic +as possible, but uses SQL to demonstrate concepts of extracting data +from a GTFS feed. + +### About The Author + +Quentin Zervaas is a software developer from Adelaide, Australia. + +Quentin was the founder of TransitFeeds (now ), a web +site that provides a comprehensive listing of public transportation data +available around the world. This site is referenced various times +throughout this book. + +### Credits + +First Edition.
