  4. Walking Directions at Origin, Destination and Transfer Locations

  5. Multiagency Transit Trip Planner Results

  6. Biggest Challenge of Multiagency Transit Trip Planner • Maintaining consistent supply of current, accurate schedule data from multiple independent agencies. • Avoid introducing another single-purpose application that requires transit agencies to maintain another redundant set of schedule data.

  7. MPO Schedule Data Predicament Telephone Agent Systems (IVR) AVL System FTA Demand Modeling This stop will be served at the following times. National Transit Database Is the bus on time? Regional ITS Timetable Ride-Guide Publishing Carrier A What serves my stop? Status/Exception 17a Reporting Corridor-Level Analysis - ITS Is my stop next? StateDOT Let me know when your service changes. On-Board Annunciator When will the next 3 buses arrive? Carriers B, C, D How much should this transfer cost? How much service is available where? Which trip did this passenger take? Fare Collection Automated Passenger Counter Bus Arrival Display

  8. Schedule Data Predicament – Within The Agency Driver Picks and Bids Budget Estimate Driver Instructions Paddle Sign/Shelter Inventory Database Vehicle Block Assignments Scheduling Department Construction Impacts GIS Hard Copy Timetables Stop Level Ride Guides Agency Web site ITS Applications

  9. Schedule Data Profile (SDP) & Web Data Maintenance System (WDMS) • Tools to supply service/schedule data to TRIPS123 (and 511 NY) • SDP – Provide a robustly defined XML exchange format to permit agencies with existing schedule systems to develop a standard export file serving multiple downstream ITS applications, including TRIPS123 and 511 NY • WDMS for agencies that don’t have scheduling systems. User-friendly, browser-based schedule data management tool that combines Google Mapping and SDP-formatted data

  10. Schedule Data Profile Standard (SDP)

  11. Open SDP XML Schema and Tools to Support Development of Export

  12. Web Data Maintenance System • Uses SDP as data structure • Web-based forms and maps to support management of schedule data • Provides SDP XML export feature that agencies can use to supply schedule data for other applications (GIS, Timetable publishing, AVL/APC, etc.)

  13. Web Data Maintenance System (WDMS) Map Editing Interface

  14. Browser-Based Forms for Managing Schedules

  15. Bus Stop Inventory

  16. Google Images – To Identify/Edit Precise Stop Locations

  17. TRIPS123 Foundation for Statewide Trip Planner in 511 NY

  18. 511 NY – Future Transit Content • Focus on multiagency data – Itinerary Planner is easy. Consistent, current and accurate data is hard. • New streams of information AVL, APC, AFC. • What should we do to support exchange of operational information among operators and to the public? • How can we efficiently make consistent and useful information available to a broader array of public information outlets?
