Having a national database of bus stop locations, and supporting information is a useful way of introducing country wide facilities to customers, and should make tracking individual stops much easier. However, Local authorities and operators who manage bus stop information do find that the data can sometimes be inaccurate or require updating.
The NaPTAN v2 Editor allows you to maintain the NaPTAN StopPoint and StopArea records for your local authority area. Built to support all the features of the NaPTAN version 2 XML schema, the editor is easy to use and validates changes against the schema defined rules as-you-edit.
For those moving from storing/editing their stops in Excel spreadsheets, NaPTAN version 2 data can be much more complicated than using a single table. The Omnibus editor provides a focused custom editor and Imports and Exports data entirely through the XML formats. Fast bulk import of existing NaPTAN and NPTG data will get you up and running quickly.
Operating as either a stand alone editor, or integrated with OmniFLAG, the NaPTAN Editor also creates OBNaptan, the database view for integration into OmniTIMES / OmniSTOP / OmniEXPORT etc. The editor will store data for multiple areas in the same database, allowing users to manage / export it separately.
