About

Maintained by Nelson de Oliveira Quesado FilhoFirst published 2026-06-224 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Creating, exploring, analyzing, and manipulating General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) files, which represent public transportation schedules and geographic data. The package allows users to filter data by routes, trips, stops, service dates, and time, generate spatial visualizations, and perform detailed analyses of transit networks, including headway, dwell times, route frequencies, service span, scheduled vehicle-hours, and trip duration. Methods follow common public transport planning and operation concepts described in Ceder (2007, ISBN:978-0-7506-6166-6), Vuchic (2005, ISBN:978-0-471-63265-8), Vuchic (2007, ISBN:978-0-471-75823-5), Cascetta (2009) doi:10.1007/978-0-387-75857-2, and Gentile and Noekel (2016) doi:10.1007/978-3-319-25082-3.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-gtfswizard

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-GTFSwizard

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
