GTFS Feed Import

Imports a GTFS feed into the current drawing as polylines and geo inserts. The GTFS feed is a folder containing multiple files. However this tool is only concerned with stops.txt (point) and shapes.txt (polyline) since only they contain latitude and longitude values.

Keyboard Command: PrjGtfImp

Procedure:

1. Open or establish the drawing.
2. Confirm the appropriate drawing coordinate system has been assigned.
3. Initiate this tool from the menu, ribbon or command above.
4. Select the folder containing the GTFS feed files.
5. Click OK to begin importing.
6. Optionally zoom extents to see the new geometry.

Notes:

• This tool does not check for the existence of an existing object at any given stop (point) or shape (polyline). Make sure the area you are importing into does not contain existing geometry or the possibility of duplication will occur.
• During import, additional information from the imported feed files will be imported as extended entity data. See the Extended Entity Data tools for editing and management of that data.
• There is a companion Export tool available.
