mobilis explore

mobilis explore will launch an analyst TUI aimed at researchers, operators and data engineers who need to inspect, summarise and export GTFS feeds in depth.

mobilis explore

Status: planned

mobilis explore is a stub in v0.1. The command starts but shows no real data. Development will begin after the passenger TUI (mobilis go) stabilises.

Planned features

Feed sources

  • Open a local GTFS .zip or extracted directory.
  • Open a remote feed by URL.
  • Load any feed already imported by mobilis feeds.

Summary tab

  • High-level counts: agencies, routes, stops, trips, stop times.
  • Service calendar coverage (start/end dates, active weekdays).
  • Spatial bounding box and centroid of the network.

Tables tab

  • Browsable list of every file in the feed with row counts.
  • Per-table data grid with column filtering and sorting.
  • Quick schema view: column names, types and sample values.

Export tab

  • Export any table or selection to CSV, Parquet or GeoJSON.

Keybindings (planned)

Key Action
Q Quit
O Open a feed
E Export current view

Non-goals

  • Editing feeds. mobilis explore is read-only by design.
  • Routing. For itinerary planning use a dedicated engine (OpenTripPlanner, Valhalla, …).
