I've always wondered, does Google Maps link into each city's public transport API manually after contacting the city, or do they have some sort of AI scraper?

There's a somewhat universal standard for publishing transit information. Not all agencies are fully compliant, but most are on some level.

Oh I didn't know about that. Where can I find more information?
