# tidytransit

Use tidytransit to map transit stops and routes, calculate travel times and transit
frequencies, and validate transit feeds. Tidytransit reads the
[General Transit Feed Specification](https://gtfs.org/) into
[tidyverse](https://tibble.tidyverse.org/) and
[simple features](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Features) data frames.
Tidytransit can be used to:

- [read GTFS feeds into R](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/reference/read_gtfs.html)
- [calculate travel times between transit stops](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/reference/travel_times.html)
- [convert stops and routes to sf data frames](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/reference/gtfs_as_sf.html)
- [validate transit feeds and more](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/reference/index.html)

Have a look at the following vignettes to see how tidytransit can be used to analyse a feed:

- [introduction](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/articles/introduction.html)
- [calendar and service patterns](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/articles/servicepatterns.html)
- [create time tables for stops](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/articles/timetable.html)
- [frequency and headway calculations](https://r-transit.github.io/tidytransit/articles/frequency.html)

## Installation

This package requires a working installation of
[sf](https://github.com/r-spatial/sf#installing).

Install tidytransit from CRAN:

``` r
install.packages('tidytransit')
```

For the development version from Github:

```r
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("r-transit/tidytransit")
```
