// Terms and limits

Access
none for files; free key for services
Free tier
Free for file-based data (no key) and for service-based data within the published per-service limits ("In principle, you can obtain file and service related data free of charge."); a free key is required for service-based data.
Rate limits
Service-based data, per API-key: OJP/CKAN "Limit A: 50 requests per minute and API-key" and "Limit B: 20‘000 requests per day and API-key"; GTFS RT/GTFS RT Service Alerts 5 requests per minute; other services have their own published limits (limits page). File-based data: no stated numeric limit. Costs apply above the stated limits.
Licence
Customterms
Licence note
The terms of use require citing the source and the limits page sets per-service request limits with charges above them: "These limits can be exceeded, but then costs will be incurred*." Recorded as Custom because of the attribution requirement and the above-limit paid-contract terms; FEDRO-sourced traffic data has its own separate terms.
Attribution
Required: "The URL opentransportdata.swiss must be cited as the source for raw data in publications and analyses that make use of ODMCH data." FEDRO traffic data has its own terms.
