TTC BusTime publishes keyless GTFS-Realtime VehiclePositions with real coordinates for the surface network: ~1,180 buses and streetcars with bearing and per-vehicle timestamps. Registering it is one registry row. The subway is deliberately absent. BusTime covers surface vehicles only and the subway publishes no positions, so Lines 1/2/4 are left out rather than inferred from schedules — the same rule that keeps NYCT out. Route numbers establish the mode: the three-digit 500-series is streetcar, as are the four Blue Night routes on streetcar trackage. A leading 5 alone would misclassify bus routes 50-59, so the rule is anchored and tested. Licensing is the portal-wide Open Government Licence - Toronto; the CKAN record for the BusTime NVAS dataset leaves its own licence field blank, and the terms note says so rather than overstating the grant.
