Admin/General Changes

Modes Architecture

  • Support for multiple modes/services in MDS
    • Updates the base of MDS to have some shared objects and fields, and specific fields as needed for each mode.
    • Adds specific modes to MDS, with help from Member Networks, and existing real world data exchanges between operators, agencies, and solution providers.
    • Operators must register a unique UUID for each mode they operate under.

Passenger Services

Delivery Robots

Car Share

Work to bring modes together

Policy Reimagining

A reimagining of Policy, including top ten most common policies are clearly defined, edge cases (dwell time, trip definition, rule units, updating/ending policies, lookback periods) are clarified, Stops is out of beta, and Policy feeds are public

Policy Requirements

Requirements now supports linking to external use cases, and is moved out of beta because of adoption.

Agency/Provider Unification

The difference between Agency and Provider is that with Agency operators PUSH data to cities, and with Provider cities PULL data from operators. Both share the same data types, referenced in a new file, with the same endpoints and fields available.

Provider

Reports have a new adaptive scooter special group type, and improved formatting.

Geography

Jurisdiction

Technical Updates

As part of the OpenAPI schema work, a number of technical updates were made to ensure the spec was internally consistent. A full list can be found for all issues and PRs in this date range.

Release 2019-10-31

The 0.4.0 release represents a major step forward in the Mobility Data Specification. The provider endpoints have been refactored to allow static file backed API servers which should improve uptime, reliability and the ability to backfill what is now growing to years of data. There is a new policy API endpoint, designed to be implemented by Agencies, that allows for clearer communication of geofencing, vehicle caps and more. A full list of changes is below. Many thanks to all the contributors who helped on this release.

mobility-data-specification - 0.2.1

Released 2018-12-03

This release is the first patch release of MDS 0.2.

We did not chose to include the timestamp change, as discussed in issue #104, because it is breaking. Early versions of this branch included that change. The change will be made in MDS 0.3.0.

CHANGES

  • Release Guidelines. Ref #147 #129
  • Many Validator Fixes/Null Fixes. Ref #166 #165 #128
  • Many Clarifications / Cleanup to make the spec easier to read.
  • JSON Schema is now much closer to the written spec, fails on Null if required, doesn't fail if field is not required.

Thanks to all contributors.
