Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

This Issue follows from the Provider WG discussions on 2020/01/16 and 2020/01/30 and the existing Issues #374 and #428 and related PR #427 related to bringing docked bikeshare support to MDS Provider.

Describe the solution you'd like

The current /status_changes endpoint (and by extension, the /events endpoint which inherits the data schema) was envisioned with dockless micromobility in mind - specifically, events have a geographic (lat/lng) location. In the world of docked bikeshare/micromobility, we would rather represent an event as occurring at a particular dock/stop.

Is this a breaking change

  • Yes, breaking

Likely breaking as we would be changing the /status_changes definition.

Impacted Spec

  • provider

Describe alternatives you've considered

We want MDS to represent docked bikeshare true to the spirit of MDS - granular data useful in regulatory and planning contexts. While possible, simply encoding GBFS data into MDS endpoints/data types wouldn't represent a true evolution of the MDS spec.
