Hey Mike,
I don't understand what you mean by local closed data policies. Maybe in the
past, but not anymore. Portland has some of the most open data policies in
the States, or so I've heard. See http://civicapps.org/datasets. Trimet bus
routes are freely available to import directly, if you wanted. However, they
change a lot, so most trip planners draw that data in separately.
Most transit agencies, including Trimet, provide their schedules in a GTFS
format (General Transit Feed Specifications). This allows Google and other
trip planners to get the most updated schedules regularly. See
http://developer.trimet.org/ There are also regularly updated shapefiles
available.
For Trimet's purposes, OpenTripPlanner will be drawing from three different
data sources - OpenStreetMap for a base map, Trimet for route info and
scheduling (the GTFS), and an elevation data source. See
http://opentripplanner.com/ You can contact OpenPlans yourself for more info
on OTP.
You can also demo OTP from Trimet http://maps5.trimet.org/otp/. Just keep in
mind that OSM is not updated with enough data for walking and bike modes to
be accurate. We're still working on that!
Hope this helps. Maybe see you at the Meet & Greet?
