as_wizardgtfs: Convert a GTFS Feed to 'wizardgtfs'

In GTFSwizard: Creating, Exploring, and Manipulating GTFS Files

Convert a GTFS Feed to 'wizardgtfs'

Description

Converts a list-like GTFS feed to the class used by GTFSwizard. Character GTFS dates are converted to [Date] values, a date-to-service lookup is created, and missing shapes can optionally be inferred from stop locations.

Usage

as_wizardgtfs(gtfs_list, build_shapes = TRUE)

Arguments

gtfs_list	A named list of GTFS tables or a 'tidygtfs' object.
build_shapes	Logical. If 'TRUE', infer 'shapes' when the table is absent. Inferred shapes connect stops with straight line segments and are intended for analysis and visualization, not map-matched routing.

Details

The input is checked for required tables, required fields, primary-key duplication, foreign-key consistency, increasing stop and shape sequences, valid service dates, and valid GTFS time strings. Times remain character values because GTFS permits hours greater than 24.

Value

A 'wizardgtfs' object.
