Transport for Lisbon, Portugal vs Transport for Norway
EMEL (Lisbon's municipal mobility and parking operator) publishes its open data through the city's Lisboa Aberta CKAN portal rather than a dedicated live API — the old emel.city-platform.com/opendata/ address now 302-redirects to an unrelated EMEL page. Datasets cover on-street and off-street parking locations and occupancy, GIRA bike-share, regulated parking zones, road tunnels, and street furniture, served keyless as CSV, SHP, and JSON via CKAN's standard action API.
Entur is Norway's national registry for public transport data, aggregating schedules and real-time updates from 60+ operators (21,000 daily departures) behind a GraphQL Journey Planner API, plus SIRI real-time and NeTEx static feeds. Fully open and free of charge, keyless for read access, though Entur asks every consumer to self-identify with an ET-Client-Name header and reserves the right to rate-limit unidentified traffic; the old developer.entur.org portal is being retired in favor of developer.entur.no.
