Frequently asked questions

What data is needed? Minimum: GPS data from the buses, timetable information?

What data is needed? Minimum: GPS data from the buses, timetable information. Additionally: data on occupancy, charging usage, and cameras for security.

How much does implementation cost? Cost based on?

How much does implementation cost? The cost depends on the features: a basic stop costs ($5k-15k), with charging and displays ($10k-25k), and an overall management system ($20k-100k). ROI is achieved through improved service.

How can arrival time accuracy be ensured? In what way?

How can arrival time accuracy be ensured? Utilize real GPS data from the buses, account for historical delays, integrate with traffic management systems, and regularly update models.

Can it be integrated with existing systems?

Can it be integrated with existing systems? Yes, through APIs, it can be integrated with AVL systems, timetables, city portals, and passenger applications.
