About TransitLand
TransitLand provides a Datastore REST API for querying public transit data, including stops, routes, operators, route stop patterns, and feeds. Endpoints support lookups by Onestop ID, GTFS ID, geographic coordinates or bounding box, tags, vehicle type, and import level, with support for changesets that can be created, checked, applied, or reverted. Some endpoints are read-only and open, while others (such as changeset writes, webhooks, and feed version updates) require authentication.
The API also exposes feed and feed version data, including feed fetcher and feed eater webhooks for triggering imports, and an issues endpoint for tracking data quality problems by category and type. This service is intended for developers building applications that consume or manage structured transit data such as GTFS feeds, covering agencies and routes across multiple countries.
