Between the Lines S2E07: Mobility Data Standards

with Leo Frachet

--

Why will Mobility Data Standards help save the planet?

‍

On this week's episode of Between the Lines, we chat with Leo Frachet.

‍

Leo is the co-founder and Executive Director of MobilityData. He spent five years at Transit as a data lead, where he worked on ingesting and cleaning General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) data. After running into many challenges, he made it his mission to resolve data quality issues and joined Rocky Mountain Institute's Interoperability Transit Data initiative, which brought together stakeholders from across the industry to collaborate on developing solutions to the GTFS challenges. This project ultimately spun off into MobilityData, a stand alone international organization based in Montréal, Canada, which has brought together stakeholders on the five continents to continue to improve, refine, and expand GTFS and the General Bikeshare Feed Specification (GBFS).‍
