Public transport. Network and Timetable Exchange (NeTEx). Public transport scheduled timetables exchange format | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope

1.1 General

NeTEx is dedicated to the exchange of scheduled data (network, timetable and fare information) based on Transmodel V5.1 (EN 12896), IFOPT (EN 28701) and SIRI (CEN/TS 15531‑4 and CEN/TS 15531‑5 and prEN 15531‑1, prEN 15531‑2 and prEN 15531‑3) and supports information exchange of relevance to public transport services for passenger information and AVMS systems.

NOTE Many NeTEx concepts are taken directly from Transmodel and IFOPT; the definitions and explanation of these concepts are extracted directly from the respective standards and reused in NeTEx, sometimes with further adaptions in order to fit the NETEx context.

The data exchanges targeted by NeTEx are predominantly oriented towards passenger information and also for data exchange between transit scheduling systems and AVMS (Automated Vehicle Monitoring Systems). However it is not restricted to these purposes, and NeTEx can provide an effective solution to many other use cases for transport exchange.
