Claims, one by one

The text below is copied verbatim from the published record. Each claim names the source dossiers that carry it; caveats stay attached to the claim they qualify.

Claim 1 clm-710ef2bd1602f61b quantitative
Transport for NSW's Open Data Hub has published live GTFS-realtime feeds — vehicle positions, trip updates and alerts — for Sydney's trains, buses, ferries and light rail since 2016, with feeds refreshing about every 15 seconds under a CC BY 4.0 licence.

Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
The two TfNSW dataset records identify the GTFS-realtime feed types, modes and 2016 creation; TfNSW's developer guidance documents an approximately 15-second refresh interval, and the data licence applies CC BY 4.0.
Caveat
The TfNSW portal returned 403 to automated fetches in this pass; search-indexed portal text and the prior Sydney review support the mapping.

Sources carrying this claim

  1. Public Transport – Realtime Trip Update dataset
  2. Public Transport – Realtime Vehicle Positions dataset
  3. TfNSW Open Data Hub — Data Licence
Claim 2 clm-7fa422f682c65481 quantitative
The programme reports more than 51,000 active users and 11,300 registered applications

Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
The NSW Government case study reports more than 51,000 active users and 11,300 registered applications for the Hub.
Caveat
Operator-reported platform counts; ‘active users’ is preserved rather than recast as registered developers.

Sources carrying this claim

  1. NSW Government — Open Data Program case study
Claim 3 clm-e09cd58f6ff2434a descriptive
its trip-planning examples include TripView and Google Maps.
Published field

Mapping
mapped · no interpretation or interpolation added by this passport
What the mapping says
TfNSW's trip-planning data story names TripView and Google Maps as examples using the transport information.
Caveat
The portal returned 403 to automated retrieval in this pass; the mapping remains explicitly unreviewed.

Known limits of this passport
  • Publisher names and source languages have not yet been classified; domains are recorded without guessing.
  • Existing source notes are descriptive locators, not page- or paragraph-exact citations.
  • A missing archive, publication date or content hash is shown as null rather than inferred.
  • The project-level evidence grade ranks the strongest source in the entry; it is not a truth score for every claim.
