How this helps travel recommendations

Turns bus travel from vague advice into station, route, timetable, terminal, and confidence logic for Bangkok pivots, intercity routes, and lower-cost overland itineraries.

Developer reference

Best endpoint

Use Namtang GTFS as the route/stop spine, MOT passenger bus terminals as the official terminal master, BKS timetable/facility resources for intercity context, and OSM/Transitland as validation layers.

Recommended refresh

Refresh every 15-60 minutes, with caching and backoff when the upstream fails.

Travel scoring role

Turns bus travel from vague advice into station, route, timetable, terminal, and confidence logic for Bangkok pivots, intercity routes, and lower-cost overland itineraries.

Comparable / backup source

MOT, DLT, Namtang/OTP, Transport Co./BKS, BMTA, Thai Smile Bus, OpenStreetMap/Overpass, Transitland, Mobility Database, and official operator pages.

Example request

# Source landing or publication page; inspect linked documents or resources before automation.
curl -L "https://thaismilegroup.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=asl_load_stores"

Failure modes

  • Static GTFS does not mean realtime vehicle positions.
  • App-visible realtime is not automatically a public ingest API.
  • Station coordinates and X/Y labels need validation.
  • Intercity timetable pages can be brittle without documented JSON APIs.
  • Commercial booking inventory usually requires partner access.
  • Dashboard markup or public-page layout can change without notice.
