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.

equal_shape_distance_diff_coordinates

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 the 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 different coordinates indicate an error.

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.

fast_travel_between_far_stops

A transit vehicle moves too fast between two far stops.

Two stops are considered "far" if they are more than 10 km apart. This normally indicates a more serious problem than too fast travel between consecutive stops.

The speed threshold depends on route type and are the same as fast_travel_between_consecutive_stops.

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.

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

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_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.

trip_headsign_matches_intermediate_stop

Trip headsign matches the name of an intermediate stop, not the last stop.
