Returns the length of each specified trip_id, based either on the shapes or the stop_times file (or both).

get_trip_length(gtfs, trip_id = NULL, file = NULL, unit = "km")

Arguments

gtfs

A GTFS object, as created by read_gtfs().

trip_id

A character vector including the trip_ids to have their length calculated If NULL (the default), the function calculates the length of each trip_id in the GTFS.

file

A character vector specifying the file from which lengths should be calculated (either one of or both shapes and stop_times). If NULL (the default), the function attempts to calculate the lengths from both files, but only raises an error if none of the files exist.

unit

A string representing the unit in which lengths are desired. Either "km" (the default) or "m".

Value

A data.table containing the length of each specified trip.

Details

Please check get_trip_geometry() documentation to understand how geometry generation, and consequently length calculation, differs depending on the chosen file.

Examples

data_path <- system.file("extdata/spo_gtfs.zip", package = "gtfstools")

gtfs <- read_gtfs(data_path)

trip_length <- get_trip_length(gtfs)
head(trip_length)
#>       trip_id   length origin_file
#>        <char>    <num>      <char>
#> 1: CPTM L07-0 60.71894      shapes
#> 2: CPTM L07-1 60.71894      shapes
#> 3: CPTM L08-0 41.79037      shapes
#> 4: CPTM L08-1 41.79037      shapes
#> 5: CPTM L09-0 31.88906      shapes
#> 6: CPTM L09-1 31.88906      shapes

# the above is identical to
trip_length <- get_trip_length(gtfs, file = c("shapes", "stop_times"))
head(trip_length)
#>       trip_id   length origin_file

#> 3: CPTM L08-0 41.79037      shapes
#> 4: CPTM L08-1 41.79037      shapes
