BRT Workshop: Experiences and ChallengesRio de Janeiro, July 2013
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Motivation• OD matrices reflect demand’s behavior for a particular
time period– Obtaining OD matrices is a long and expensive process
• Mobility Surveys• Traffic Counts• In-vehicle Passenger counts (Passenger per vehicle counts)
• New technologies allow to compile cheaper and higher quality information– Automated Fare Collection Systems (AFC)
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Transantiago AFC System
• bip! Transactions (card id and type, fare, vehicle id,
time)
~ 35M transactions per week
> 3M bip! cards observed
10.000 stops
• AVL GPS (vehicle id, time, position)
~ 80 a 100 M observations
> 6.000 buses
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Outline• Automated Fare Collection Systems (AFC) & Data
Collection Systems (ADCS)• ADCS Relationship to key agency functions• Role in Decision Support• Examples of applications and services
• Passenger Flow and System Capacity• OD Matrix Estimation• Performance Measurement (PM)• Real-time demand estimation and control (reliability)• Traveler (Customer) information
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Automated Data Collection Systems (Buses)
• Automatic Vehicle Location Systems (AVL)• bus location based on GPS• available in real time
• Automatic Passenger Counting Systems (APC)• bus systems based on sensors in doors with channelized
passenger movements• passenger boarding (alighting) counts for stops/stations with
fare barriers• traditionally not available in real-time
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Automated Data Collection Systems (Buses)
• Automatic Fare Collection Systems (AFC)• increasingly based on contactless smart cards with unique ID• provides entry (exit) information (spatially and temporally) for
individual passengers• traditionally not available in real-time
•XFCD (extended floating car data)• Maintenance• Monitoring
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013 7
Manual• low capital cost• high marginal cost• small sample sizes• aggregate• unreliable
• limited spatially and temporally• not immediately available
Automatic• high capital cost• low marginal cost• large sample sizes• more detailed, disaggregate• errors and biases can be estimated and
corrected• ubiquitous• available in real-time or quasi real-time
Transit Agencies are at a Critical Transition in Data Collection Technology
We are in the era of BIG DATA!
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Opportunities• ADCS
– monitoring status at various levels of resolution
– measuring reliability
– understanding customer behavior
• Data + Computing– simulation-based performance models
– robust scheduling
– dynamic scheduling
• Communications – real time information (demand)
– Dynamic response (supply)
• Systematic approaches for planning, operations, real time control
• Maintenance
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
ADCS - Potential
• Integrated ADCS database
• Models and software to support many agency decisions using ADCS database
• Monitoring and insight into normal operations, special events, unusual weather, etc.
• Large, long-time series disaggregate panel data for better understanding of travel behavior
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
ADCS - Reality
• Most ADCS systems are implemented independently
• Data collection is ancillary to primary ADC function
• AVL - emergency notification, stop announcements
• AFC - fare collection and revenue protection
• Many problems to overcome:
• not easy to integrate data
• requires substantial resources
• lack of expertise
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Key Transit Agency/Operator Functions
A. Off-Line Functions
• Service and Operations Planning (SOP)
• Performance Measurement (PM)
B. Real-Time Functions
• Service and Operations Control and Management (SOCM)
• Customer Information (CI)
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Key Operator Functions: Off-Line Functions
A.1) Service and Operations Planning (SOP)• Network and route design
• Frequency setting and timetable development
• Vehicle and crew scheduling
• ADCS Impacts on SOP• AVL: Provide detailed characterization of route segment running times
• APC: Provide detailed characterization of stop activity (boardings, alightings, and dwell time at each stop)
• AFC: Give detailed characterization of fare transactions for individuals over time, supports better characterization of traveler behavior
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
A.2) Performance Measurement (PM)• Measures of operator performance against SOP
• Measures of service from customer viewpoint
• ADCS Impacts on PM:• AVL: Supports on-time performance assessment
• AFC: Supports passenger-oriented measures of travel time and reliability
Key Operator Functions: Off-Line Functions
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
B1) Operations Control and Management
• Dealing with deviations from SOP, both minor and major
• Dealing with unexpected changes in demand
• ADCS Impacts on management and control• AVL: Identifies current position of all vehicles, deviations from
SOP or desired operational strategy
• AFC: Provide real-time information about demand
Key Operator Functions: Real-Time Functions
Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
B2) Customer Information (CI)• Information on routes, trip times, vehicle arrival times, etc.
• Both static (based on SOP) and dynamic (based on SOP and SOCM)
• ADCS Impacts on Customer Information• AVL: Supports dynamic CI
• AFC: Permits characterization of normal trip-making at the individual level, supports active dynamic CI function

Can we use GPS data to monitor speed?
• We have the position of each bus every 30 secs.
• We need to assign buses to services and distinguish between stopping and moving time
Monitor the speed of each route

• Reliability metrics• Contractor performance
• Performance from passenger’s point of view
• High frequency services• Extensive vehicle interactions
• Most customers do not time their arrival to schedules
• On-time performance may not be as critical
• Schedules can be revised in real time• Fleet management
• Communications

Ricardo Giesen, BRT Workshop, Rio 2013
Customer Information
• State of practice– Web-based applications
• trip planning systems• Google Transit trip planning
– Smart Phone Applications• Static and dynamic information
• State of the art– Social Media
• Facebook, Twitter
– Real-Time Information– Open-Source Traveler Information Software Development
• Forthcoming– Special Mobile Applications (e.g. customers with special needs)– “Augmented Reality” and implementation in apps
• Combine compass, visual recognition, other tools

Conclusion
• New automated data sources enable a range of applications and services for improved level of service and more efficient utilization of resources
• Lack of integration– Databases
• Legacy systems• Challenge going from data to information• Level of “know – how”
