See moreThese files represent digitised Sydney’s historic public transport networks and constructed General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) datasets covering a period from 1855 to 2015. The complementary paper presents the methodology developed to generate historical GTFS data from archival sources. To validate the approach, we compared accessibility metrics derived from the generated GTFS for 2015 with those obtained from the officially published GTFS for the same year. The results show that the generated GTFS reproduced access levels within 2% of the official data, demonstrating the reliability of our method.
