Utilities for processing open data related to Tampere public transport

These routines help to massage the Tampere Public Transport GTFS data provided by ITS Factory into formats more suitable for use in applications. They are primary intended to help the development of BusMonTRE, but are released as open source, in the hope that other application developers will find them useful.

The Tampere Public Transport data is released under its own license (in Finnish only), so it is not duplicated here.

The Python version requires Python 3 or later.

• Set up a virtual environment in the project directory using python3 -m venv venv.
• Activate the virtual environment with source venv/bin/activate. You should see the command prompt change to indicate an active virtual environment.
• Install the required dependencies with pip3 install requests tqdm.

Type cd tresjolie; python3 tresjolie.py -h to show usage information.

When you're done, deactivate the virtual environment with deactivate.

It's a pun, of course:

• Très jolie is French for very nice
• TRE is a common abbreviation for Tampere
• Public transport is joukkoliikenne in Finnish, sometimes abbreviated as joli
• The e is for example (esimerkki in Finnish)
