How to Get Crowding Data Into Your Real-Time Feed

Follow

If your buses have Automated Passenger Counters (APCs) on board that can provide data in real-time, Swiftly can pass that information along to your riders! 

When Swiftly includes this information in your GTFS-realtime feeds, Transit, Google Maps, and other apps will automatically display your real-time occupancy level of each of your vehicles, giving passengers a real-time view of vehicle occupancy.

The easiest way to send us this information is via the GTFS-realtime VehiclePositions format, where you can add it to the OccupancyStatus field. If you don't have the ability to produce a GTFS-realtime feed, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager or contact support@goswift.ly to discuss alternative data formats.
