The GoogleTransitDataFeed Open Source Software project is an effort to offer tools for reading, writing, and converting to and from the Google Transit Feed Specification format, to help make public transit information projects more successful for agencies and other interested parties.

The project currently offers code for working with transit data in the Java and Python languages. You can find the TransXChange to GTFS converter tool in the Java branch, while the Feed Validator, KML Writer and other tools are available in the Python branch.

Note to developers: Source code management on this site is handled by Subversion. Literature tip: I recommend the Red Bean book by Ben Collins-Sussman, Brian W. Fitzpatrick & C. Michael Pilato.
