(e.g., www.agency.org/gtfs/gtfs.zip). Ideally, the URL should be directly downloadable without requiring login to access the file, to facilitate download by consuming software applications.

There are multiple [merge tools](https://gtfs.org/resources/gtfs/#gtfs-merge-tools) available that can be used to create a merged dataset from two different GTFS feeds. + * At any time, the published GTFS dataset should be valid for at least the next 7 days, and ideally for as long as the operator is confident that the schedule will continue to be operated. + * If possible, the GTFS dataset should cover at least the next 30 days of service. + * Old services (expired calendars) should be removed from the feed. + * If a service modification will go into effect in 7 days or fewer, this service change should be expressed through a GTFS-realtime feed (service advisories or trip updates) rather than static GTFS dataset. + * The web-server hosting GTFS data should be configured to correctly report the file modification date (see [HTTP/1.1 - Request for Comments 2616, under Section 14.29](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-14.29)https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-14.29). ## Field Definitions
