The purpose of this second module on GTFS (Part 2 of 2) is to focus specifically on GTFS-Realtime. As an extension of GTFS, the General Transit Feed Specification Real Time (GTFS- Realtime) is a data feed specification that allows public transportation agencies to provide Realtime updates about their fleet.  GTFS-Realtime requires information from various sources to generate quality real time information including GTFS.  Module 14-Part 2 provides an overview of GTFS-Realtime specification, discussion of the scope, application of how to implement it, and uses of the specifications including how an agency would implement GTFS or GTFS-Realtime.  Additionally, this module will describe downstream uses of GTFS- Realtime feeds.
