Welcome to SIRI

SIRI is an XML protocol to allow distributed computers to exchange real-time information about public transport services and vehicles.

The protocol is a CEN standard, developed with initial participation by France, Germany (Verband Deutscher Verkehrsunternehmen), Scandinavia,  and the UK  (UK Real Time Interest Group).  

SIRI is based on the  Transmodel abstract model for public transport information, a general purpose model, and XML schema for public transport information.

The SIRI protocol uses open system technologies and is platform independent. The SIRI publish/subscribe architecture and terminology is based on the WS-Pubsub draft standard for publish subscribe web services.
