The data behind
the meter.

We use public operational records and keep the source chain visible.

01

PRIMARY SOURCE

MBTA LAMP subway performance exports

Daily Parquet files contain actual and scheduled stop, travel-time and headway fields derived from GTFS and GTFS-Realtime records.

Update policy

The initial release uses the latest 30 published service dates available during the build. Future updates replace the window and preserve the dates shown on every report.

Corrections

If a publisher revises a source file, a rebuilt score may change. TransitMeter reports the underlying service window so comparisons remain auditable.

Licensing

Use of MBTA data is governed by the MassDOT Developers License Agreement. TransitMeter’s presentation and score are independent.

02

OFFICIAL STATION METADATA

MBTA V3 Stops API

TransitMeter resolves the parent-station identifiers in LAMP records against the MBTA's public stops endpoint. This supplies current station names and municipalities without inventing a separate station taxonomy.
