Timetables (schedules) of all municipally run or commissioned transit services (buses, subway, rail tram etc). Locations of stops would also be good (as geodata) but is not required to answer this question affirmatively.

Comments

The data is of good quality as the popular, official journey planner is based on the same data. However, it could be more accurate and granular regarding new applications such as turn-by-turn navigation.

Considering the structure and ease of use, Kalkati XML is the national standard and GTFS is the de-facto international standard. In addition, there's a fairly straight-forward API as witnessed by tens of third-party mobile user interfaces taking advantage of it. The API is not based on a standard though and it's difficult e.g. to link with the respective realtime data.
