The file stations.csv is distributed under the ODbL licence (see LICENCE.txt). In short, any modification to this data source must be published.

Data sources include Openstreetmap and SNCF OpenData that are under ODbL or compatible and a lot of sweat, tears and blood.

The file stations.csv contains all our data representing stations. Here is an explanation of the columns:

id: our internal unique identifier
name: the name of the station as it is locally known (see info_* for translations)
slug: it is guaranteed to be unique across all the suggestable stations (see is_suggestable)
uic: the UIC code of the station
uic8_sncf: the SNCF sometimes uses an UIC code with 8 digits instead of 7. The last digit is a checksum
longitude, latitude: coordinates as decimals values
parent_station_id: a station might belong to a meta station whose id is this value. For instance Paris Gare d’Austerlitz belongs to the metastation Paris
is_city, is_main_station: this value is not reliable
country: 2 letter ISO code
timezone: as [Continent]/[country] ISO code
is_suggestable: can the user input this station
[carrier]_id: the id of the station as it is known by the carrier
[carrier]_is_enabled: can a ticket be booked to/from the station through that carrier
info:[lang]: extra information that is useful in the specific language
same_as: in some systems, a station can be split in two, with two id. If this value is set, the station pointed by that value should be considered as the actual station
