Documentation

This sandbox contains vehicle parking updaters. Unlike for some other sandbox features, this is not enabled/disabled through otp-config.json but from router-config.json updaters.

Currently contains the following updaters:

• HSL Park and Ride
• ParkAPI
• Bikely
• NOI Open Data Hub

Configuration

These sandboxed vehicle parking updaters can be enabled by editing the updaters section in the router-config.json according to the following examples.

All updaters have the following parameters in common:

• type: this needs to be "vehicle-parking"
• feedId: this is used as a "prefix" for park ids, entrance ids and sometimes also for tags.
