Overpass API includes a feature to render public transport maps (a kind of linear maps). All the following example links on this wiki page are using the documented {{Sketch Line}} utility template.

Usage

On this page you can choose the network, the line and the operator.

In order to get a specific rendering you can add the style:

wuppertal, simple style with German abbreviations (default)
padua, simple style with German abbreviations
paris, style displaying also connections, with French abbreviations
any style you provide.

Other options are summarily documented online on this webform, or better detailed with examples in the documentation of the {{Sketch Line}} template usable on this wiki.

The page display twice the stop of a route-relations using PTv2 as mentionned in this Overpass API issue. There is no plan to fix this problem soon.

Technical limitations

The linear maps system cannot recognise lines with an ampersand in ref=*. This issue affects the Hammersmith/Waterloo & City lines on the London Underground, where trying to do so will return the “No relation found” error.
