lehigh-and-northampton — Source Data Validation Report

decreasing_or_equal_stop_time_distance

Decreasing or equal shape_dist_traveled in stop_times.txt.

When sorted by stop_times.stop_sequence, two consecutive entries in stop_times.txt should have increasing distance, based on the field shape_dist_traveled. If the values are equal, this is considered as an error.

Only the first 50 of 1915 affected records are displayed below.

trip_distance_exceeds_shape_distance

The distance between the last shape point and last stop point is greater than or equal to the 11.1m threshold.

Only the first 50 of 282 affected records are displayed below.

duplicate_route_name

Two distinct routes have either the same route_short_name, the same route_long_name, or the same combination of route_short_name and route_long_name.

All routes of the same route_type with the same agency_id should have unique combinations of route_short_name and route_long_name.

Note that there may be valid cases where routes have the same short and long name, e.g., if they serve different areas. However, different directions must be modeled as the same route.

Example of bad data:

equal_shape_distance_diff_coordinates_distance_below_threshold

Two consecutive points have equal shape_dist_traveled and different lat/lon coordinates in shapes.txt and the distance between the two points is greater than 0 but less than 1.11m.

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 small difference of coordinates (greater than 0 but less than 1.11 m distance) result in a warning.

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.

feed_expiration_date7_days

Dataset should be valid for at least the next 7 days.

The dataset expiration date defined in feed_info.txt is in seven days or less. At any time, the published GTFS dataset should be valid for at least the next 7 days.

missing_recommended_field

A recommended field is missing.

The given field has no value in some input row, even though values are recommended.

You can see more about this notice here.

missing_timepoint_value

stop_times.timepoint value is missing for a record.

When at least one of stop_times.arrival_time or stop_times.departure_time are provided, stop_times.timepoint should be defined

mixed_case_recommended_field

This field has customer-facing text and should use Mixed Case (should contain upper and lower case letters).

This field contains customer-facing text and should use Mixed Case (upper and lower case letters) to ensure good readability when displayed to riders. Avoid the use of abbreviations throughout the feed (e.g. St. for Street) unless a location is called by its abbreviated name (e.g. “JFK Airport”). Abbreviations may be problematic for accessibility by screen reader software and voice user interfaces.

route_color_contrast

Insufficient route color contrast.

A route's color and route_text_color should be contrasting.

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:

stop_has_too_many_matches_for_shape

Stop entry that has many potential matches to the trip's path of travel, as defined by the shape entry in shapes.txt.

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.

stop_too_far_from_shape_using_user_distance

Stop time too far from shape.

A stop time entry that is a large distance away from the location of the shape in shapes.txt as defined by shape_dist_traveled values.

Only the first 50 of 4342 affected records are displayed below.

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.

trip_coverage_not_active_for_next7_days

Trips data should be valid for at least the next seven days.

This notice is triggered if the date range where a significant number of trips are running ends in less than 7 days.
