These examples are for you to understand how to represent public transport information using NeTEx. The files are classified into 3 categories:
- Functions, for a specific functional representation
- Standards, as for how to represent the information from a given standard into NeTEx
- Profiles, for information found in a given profile of NeTEx
Examples can be found in the root directory \schema\1.00\examples\...

Building a National Profile for NeTEx involves a structured process to ensure compliance and interoperability with the European Passenger Information Profile (EPIP). Below are the essential steps to guide you through the process:
-
Explore the European Passenger Information Profile (EPIP)
- Begin by exploring the European Passenger Information Profile (EPIP). Familiarize yourself with the EPIP standards and requirements.
-
Identify Missing Information
- Examine your national data and identify any information that is not covered by the EPIP but is essential for your national profile. This may include specific data elements or formatting requirements.
-
Add to the EPIP Profile
- Extend the EPIP profile to include the missing information identified in the previous step. Ensure that the additions align with the principles and structure of the EPIP.
-
Share with NeTEx Experts for Review/Input
- Collaborate with NeTEx experts and the community. Share your modified profile for review and input. Consider using the NeTEx GitHub repository or relevant discussion forums for feedback.
-
Publish & Disseminate
- Once your national profile is reviewed and refined, publish it in a suitable format. Ensure that it is accessible to relevant stakeholders and can be integrated into NeTEx systems.
- If you're curious about already published profiles, head over to the Presentation of Published Profiles section.
- Developers, don't miss the Tools for Developers section, where you'll find the tools you need for your NeTEx development.
Below is a list of upcoming profiles that are currently in development or planning stages:
| Abbreviation | Full Name | Description | Estimated Date of Publication |
|---|---|---|---|
| EPIAP | European Passenger Information Accessibility Profile | Accessibility Information about the network | End of 2023 |
| Fare | Fare Information | Comprehensive representation of all information related to Fare in a public transport system | 2024 |
