Automatic vehicle location tracking system based on GIS environment
Recently, automatic vehicle location (AVL) has become more widely used, affordable and popular than ever before. AVL is used for different tracking purposes, especially for those related to tracking one vehicle or a fleet of vehicles. Tracking system technology was made possible by the integration of three new technologies: navigational technologies ...

Characteristics Analysis of Bus Stop Failure Using Automatic Vehicle Location Data
Queue forming behind a bus stop on an urban street is common and a traffic bottleneck usually occurs around the bus stop area. The bus stop failure means arriving buses cannot move into the bus stop due to limited capacity but have to wait for available ...

Diagnosis of Irregularity Sources by Automatic Vehicle Location Data
In high frequency transit services, irregularity is unavoidable due to the stochastic context in which bus services are operated. As a result, the measurement of the regularity and the identification of possible irregularity sources provide an opportunity to maintain scheduled headways.

Analysis of Bus Travel Time Variability using Automatic Vehicle Location Data
Transit service reliability is a measure of the quality of service offered by the public transit systems. The nature and pattern of the travel time variability can be described by the travel time distribution and it is the prerequisite in the reliability

Validation of Automatic Vehicle Location Data in Public Transport Systems [PDF]
AbstractPerformance metrics for public transport systems can be calculated from automatic vehicle location (AVL) data but data collection subsystems can introduce errors into the data which would invalidate these calculations, giving rise to misleading conclusions.

Measuring Service Reliability Using Automatic Vehicle Location Data [PDF]
Bus service reliability has become a major concern for both operators and passengers. Buffer time measures are believed to be appropriate to approximate passengers′ experienced reliability in the context of departure planning. Two issues with regard to buffer time estimation are addressed, namely, performance disaggregation and capturing passengers ...
