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.

foreign_key_violation

Wrong foreign key.

A foreign key references the primary key of another file. A foreign key violation means that the foreign key referenced from a given row (the child file) cannot be found in the corresponding file (the parent file). The Foreign keys are defined in the specification under "Type" for each 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.

leading_or_trailing_whitespaces

The value in CSV file has leading or trailing whitespaces.

This notice is emitted for values protected with double quotes since whitespaces for non-protected values are trimmed automatically by CSV parser.

The validator strips whitespaces from protected values. We do not see any use case when such a whitespace may be needed. On the other hand, some real-world feeds use trailing whitespaces for some values and omit them for the others. This is causing the largest problem when a primary key and a foreign key differ just by a whitespace: it is clear that they are intended to be the same, that is why we always strip whitespaces.

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_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_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.

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.

service_window_outside_feed_period

A service window is not covered by the feed's validity period.

stop_without_zone_id

Stop without value for stops.zone_id contained in a route with a zone-dependent fare rule.

If fare_rules.txt is provided, and fare_rules.txt uses at least one column among origin_id, destination_id, and contains_id, then all stops and platforms (location_type = 0) must have stops.zone_id assigned if they are defined in a trip defined in a route defined in a fare rule which also defines at least one of origin_id, destination_id, or contains_id.
