How It Works

The Land Transport Datamall collects and stores transport data, provides easy access via APIs, and supports developers and users in improving mobility and planning in Singapore.

Data collection

It gathers real-time and historical transport data, such as bus/train schedules, traffic conditions, parking availability, and accessibility features, from various sources like transport operators and traffic management systems.

Data storage

The data is stored securely by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) in a central database, ensuring it is accurate and up-to-date.

API access

The platform provides open APIs that allow developers to access and use this data in their own applications, such as for journey planners, traffic apps, or parking solutions.

Web Portal & App Zone

Developers can access tools, documentation, and resources through a web portal or App Zone to integrate transport data into their apps.

Real-time updates

The platform provides real-time data, like bus arrival times and traffic conditions, which can be used in apps to help commuters make informed travel decisions.

Data usage

Developers, government agencies, and the public use this data for improving transport services, creating apps, and making better transport planning decisions.

Historical data

The Datamall also offers historical data that helps with transport planning and research.
