Apimetro vs Community Transit

Apimetro

Apimetro is an independent developer's geospatial dataset covering Mexico City's public-transport network — Metro, Metrobús, Cablebús, RTP, Trolebús, Tren Ligero, Mexicable, Mexibús, and CETRAM hubs — with per-station and per-line lookups, ready-to-render GeoJSON geometries, and historical ridership (afluencia) figures. Every endpoint answers without a key despite a BasicAuth scheme declared in its Swagger doc, and it's distributed under the Business Source License 1.1.

Community Transit

Community Transit, the public transit authority for Snohomish County, WA, publishes its own GTFS schedule data (current and upcoming service-change versions) plus three keyless GTFS-Realtime feeds — trip updates, vehicle positions, and service alerts — as static downloads. The original listing pointed at TransitLand's decommissioned v1 GitHub README with no real connection to this agency; reconciled here to Community Transit's own open-data portal.
