Scandinavia Transit Skill

Search ground transport (trains, buses, ferries) within Norway, Sweden, and Denmark using their national transit APIs.

**Sources:**

• [Entur (Norway)](https://developer.entur.org) — Open GraphQL API for all Norwegian transit
• [ResRobot (Sweden)](https://www.trafiklab.se/api/trafiklab-apis/resrobot-v21/) — REST API via Trafiklab for all Swedish transit
• [Rejseplanen (Denmark)](https://labs.rejseplanen.dk) — REST API (HAFAS) for all Danish transit including pricing

Norway: Entur (Journey Planner v3)

Open GraphQL API. No key needed (but a client name header is required). Covers ALL Norwegian transit: Vy trains, buses, ferries, trams, metro. 60+ operators.

Trip Search (Oslo to Bergen example)

curl -s -X POST "https://api.entur.io/journey-planner/v3/graphql" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "ET-Client-Name: $ENTUR_CLIENT_NAME" \
  -d '{"query": "{ trip(from: {place: \"NSR:StopPlace:59872\"}, to: {place: \"NSR:StopPlace:548\"}, numTripPatterns: 5) { tripPatterns { startTime duration legs { mode expectedStartTime expectedEndTime fromPlace { name } toPlace { name } line { publicCode name authority { name } } } } } }"}' | jq '.data.trip.tripPatterns[] | {start: .startTime, duration_min: (.duration / 60), legs: [.legs[] | {mode: .mode, from: .fromPlace.name, to: .toPlace.name, line: .line.publicCode, operator: .line.authority.name, depart: .expectedStartTime, arrive: .expectedEndTime}]}'

Find Stop IDs

Stop IDs use the format `NSR:StopPlace:XXXXX`. Find them via the Geocoder:

curl -s "https://api.entur.io/geocoder/v1/autocomplete?text=Oslo%20S&size=3" \
  -H "ET-Client-Name: $ENTUR_CLIENT_NAME" | jq '[.features[] | {name: .properties.name, id: .properties.id, type: .properties.layer}]'

Key Stop IDs

| City | Stop ID | Name | |------|---------|------| | Oslo S | NSR:StopPlace:59872 | Oslo S | | Bergen | NSR:StopPlace:548 | Bergen stasjon | | Stavanger | NSR:StopPlace:4130 | Stavanger | | Trondheim | NSR:StopPlace:41742 | Trondheim S | | Bodo | NSR:StopPlace:49484 | Bodo stasjon |

Use the Geocoder to find any stop. Works for airports, ferry terminals, bus stops too.

Departure Board

curl -s -X POST "https://api.entur.io/journey-planner/v3/graphql" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "ET-Client-Name: $ENTUR_CLIENT_NAME" \
  -d '{"query": "{ stopPlace(id: \"NSR:StopPlace:59872\") { name estimatedCalls(numberOfDepartures: 10) { expectedDepartureTime destinationDisplay { frontText } serviceJourney { journeyPattern { line { publicCode name transportMode } } } } } }"}' | jq '.data.stopPlace | {name: .name, departures: [.estimatedCalls[] | {time: .expectedDepartureTime, destination: .destinationDisplay.frontText, line: .serviceJourney.journeyPattern.line.publicCode, mode: .serviceJourney.journeyPattern.line.transportMode}]}'
