Hi,

I have the map route available with me from the provider here. Can I extract the Name, route, lat/lon info from the map. There is no certain GTFS data available from the provider.

 

We can go by right clicking on the map and check inspect element, but I am not sure how do we extract the required info.

This is an ArcGIS Server map service, so it only serves raster and query data - you can grab some of the data you need by poking around in the service directory, but I don't think you can get the lat/long. Just use POST requests in an HTTPCaller, and anything you can get via the website should be reachable from FME too.

This may violate their terms of service though - I'd take a bit of time to review the legal notes on the website before launching in too deeply!
