Real-Time Tracking Applications
Realtrack Real-Time Passenger Information (RTPI) and Intelligent transport solutions Real information for real people.
Intelligent Transport
Public transport is experiencing unprecedented demand as the travelling public switch from private cars to more cost
effective forms of transport. This unprecedented demand is motivating authorities and service providers to provide more
efficient, reliable and user friendly passenger transport services. Technology is now available that allows operators
instantaneous information about transport assets allowing better scheduling, capacity control, routing and traffic priority.
Real-Time information to the travelling public enhances the travel experience and ultimately increases passenger patronage.
Real-Time Passenger Information
Radiola offers its advanced RTPI solution to the ever increasing demand for real information to real people using public
transport networks. Our combination of advanced precision tracking, leading edge free to air high capacity radio networks,
powerful software applications and innovative display options recognises that each public transport network requires
considerable customisation.
We provide:
- City wide communications networks to ensure data transfer is not limited by capacity or operational budget
- Differential GPS (DGPS) tracking to ensure errors are minimised
- Learning software that, combined with DGPS tracking, ensures the most accurate arrival time predictions
- A range of cost-effective street signage including:
- Solar power displays for low use bus stops
- LED or LCD/Plasma signage for high use stop
- Audio for the vision impaired
- On bus displays with audio
- Ticket printer interface
- SMS Real-Time arrival
- Web access
- Dual hot stand-by master control equipment
- On line diagnostic
- Fleet management functionality
- Automated management reporting
Radiola's RTPI solution ensures cost-effective, low risk
network implementation while ensuring through life
operational
costs are constrained.
Our RTPI solution is GREEN in that it motivates
public transport while minimising the consumption of
conventionally
generated electricity.
RealTrack RTPI is designed using Open System Architecture (OSA) to allow growth, diversity and redundancy to meet
current and future needs. The master station provides stability and reliability and the various connectivity options ensure
deployment and operational costs are kept within required targets.
Accuracy of the system is achieved by using Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) coupled with smart "learning"
algorithms that continually and instantaneously calculate arrival times. The learning software considers traffic flow and
routine delays to further enhance the quality of output.
OSA is also evident with the display options offered covering the full spectrum from small single line displays through large
multiline LED, LCD or Plasma options. External interfaces via the internet or other communications protocol round out what
is a fully featured, flexible and cost effective RTPI solution.
