What Are SDKs & Libraries? ​
SDKs and libraries provide ready-to-use code components for developers working with transport data. They help parse, validate, generate, and exchange standard-compliant datasets without needing to implement low-level logic from scratch.
They're ideal for:
- Developers building transport apps or APIs
- Data engineers processing or transforming datasets
- Integrators creating standardized data interfaces
Types of SDKs & Libraries ​
| Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Parsing Libraries | Read and write standard data formats | DATEX II XML Parser |
| Validation Libraries | Embed schema or business rule validation | NeTEx Rule Validator |
| Conversion Libraries | Transform data between supported formats | SIRI ↔ JSON Converter |
| API Client SDKs | Simplify communication with transport APIs | SIRI REST Client |
| Metadata Libraries | Handle DCAT-AP / mobilityDCAT-AP metadata | DCAT-AP Toolkit |
Common Use Cases ​
Application Development ​
Quickly build standard-compliant APIs or data integrations.
Data Transformation ​
Convert and harmonize datasets in pipelines or ETL jobs.
Testing and Validation ​
Integrate schema validation within your application logic.
Metadata Automation ​
Generate or update DCAT-AP or mobilityDCAT-AP metadata programmatically.
Example Tool ​
DATEX II Python SDK
- Parses and generates DATEX II XML files
- Supports validation and serialization
- Compatible with Python 3 and modern frameworks
- Open source, community-maintained
