1 Transport Timetables
URL: http://data.gov.tw/node/6138
Format: XML

There is no national central public transport data catalog. Taiwan Railway, Taiwan High Speed Rail and etc., all timetables are in different websites. No changes in 2014.

People can download different timetables they need in http://data.gov.tw.

  1. Domestic Airline timetable in CSV format: http://data.gov.tw/node/6066
  2. Bus timetable in CSV format: http://data.gov.tw/node/6052
  3. Railway in XML format: http://data.gov.tw/node/6138
  4. High Speed Railway in CSV format: http://data.gov.tw/node/7080

They are all provided by Ministry of Transportation and Communication but from different department.

And the open data platform is built by Taiwan gov. so, I think those data sets are eligible.
