Tampere Public Transport SIRI Interface (Realtime JSON at data.itsfactory.fi)

ITS Factory Developer Wikistä


ITS Factory provides realtime data from Tampere Public Transportation. All the data comes from Realtime SIRI interface in Tampere Public Transport Information System (IJ2010).

The original SIRI XML data is converted to JSON for client accesses. Please see "API Access" later on this page for details on how to access the API.

This interface is intended for developers aiming to develop solutions and services that use real-time public transport data. Realtime information is updated every second. The provided real-time SIRI services offer the same information that was previously only available for passenger information displays and for Lissu Liikenteenseuranta web portal.
