# GTFS Governance | ||
|
||
The GTFS Specification is not set in stone. Instead, it is an open specification developed and maintained by the community of transit agencies, developers, and other stakeholders who use GTFS. It is expected that this community of producers and consumers of GTFS data will have proposals for extending the spec to enable new capabilities. | ||
|
||
To formalize this process, we've established the GTFS Governance framework, which includes the Specification Amendment Process. | ||

# General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) | ||
The General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) is an [Open Standard](https://www.interoperablemobility.org/definitions/#open_standard) used to distribute relevant information about transit systems to riders. It allows public transit agencies to publish their transit data in a format that can be consumed by a wide variety of software applications. Today, the GTFS data format is used by thousands of public transport providers.GTFS consists of two formats: GTFS Schedule and GTFS Realtime. | ||
