SUMMARY:TODS Briefing: Connect Your Scheduling and Dispatch Systems
DESCRIPTION:Join us on July 14 for our free public briefing on TODS. In much the same way GTFS revolutionized how agencies share schedules with the public\, TODS does the same for the operational side: the crew assignments\, vehicle blocks\, and non-revenue service that scheduling and dispatch systems rely on to actually run service. A growing community of agencies and vendors is building TODS into the tools they already use\, so those systems can finally speak a common language instead of a different proprietary format for every product. \nFeaturing:\n\nTimon Kelter\, Research & Development Team Lead\, Optibus\nAnne-Sophie Lachapelle\, Master’s researcher\, Polytechnique Montréal\nJeff Kessler\, Director of Innovation\, Keolis Commuter Services\, and TODS Board member\nJosh Fabian\, Deputy Director of Transit Technology\, Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA)\, and TODS Board Coordinator\n\nHosted by Carl Fredlund\, Strategic Director\, MobilityData. \n📅 Tuesday\, July 14\, 2026 \n🕐 1:00 PM ET / 10:00 AM PT / 17:00 UTC \n💻 Zoom · One hour\, recorded for sharing afterward \nRegister Now\nWhat you’ll gain: \n\nWhat TODS is\, and when it’s the right fit for your agency\nHow a common standard ends the custom\, brittle handoff between your scheduling and CAD/AVL systems\nWhy your operational data becomes portable\, so switching a vendor stops being a re-platforming project\nHow to put TODS into your next procurement\, the single highest-leverage step an agency can take\nWhat adoption actually takes\, from the agencies and vendors already doing it\n\nTODS is stewarded by MobilityData and governed by an independent board of transit agencies and vendors\, with origins in the California Integrated Travel Project (Cal-ITP). A growing list of implementers\, including Optibus\, MBTA\, Keolis Commuter Services\, Swiftly\, and others\, is building it into the tools agencies use to plan and operate service. \nRegister Now\nCan’t make it live? Register anyway and we’ll send you the recording. \nThe community shaping TODS is built by the people who show up. We hope you’ll join us. \nRegister Now\n✨ Beyond the briefing\, stay close to the TODS community \n🔗 Explore the standard at tods-transit.org\, the home for the spec\, governance\, and resources. \n🛠 Follow or contribute on GitHub\, where the standard is developed in the open.
