Agenda

Transit Information and Data Industry ScanTSIP Project OverviewSubject Matter Technical Working Groups

Planning Real-Time Fare Collection SDP Maintenance and Data Processing TSIP Requirements and Specification

Transit Information and Data Industry Scan

Data Topics Regional Transit Planning

What Transit Service Information are needed to support current and emerging planning tools

Transit Situational Service Status Real Time Information – ETA & Schedule Adherence Ad Hoc Schedules Incident reporting

Fare Data Supports Regional “Fare Calculator”

Scan: Regional Transit Planning (existing)

Focus: Regional Transit Planning requirements Data, Tools, Applications, Audiences, and Organizations Data: NY Regional Transit Planning data needs (performance

and metadata); Tools: Travel Demand Model, GIS / Spatial Analysis Applications: Travel Demand Forecasting, Air Quality

Conformity, Corridor Plans, Transit Development Plans Audiences: regional and service planners (strategic) Organizations: MPOs, Operating & Planning Agencies, Local

Jurisdictions, NYSDOTRequest interviews from key organizations to learn

about existing regional planning requirements.

Scan: Regional Transit Planning (emerging)

Industry Scan of emerging tools and techniques, and their data needs What are emerging planning tools? What can they do?

What are their data input requirements? e.g., T-Best (FDOT) (Are there other tools that you want to know about?)

Is there a “Common Transit Planning Language”

Scan: Transit Situational StatusFocus: Customer Communications

ETA, Schedule Adherence

Incident reporting

Ad Hoc schedules for events, incidents and disruptions to regular service

survey coming soon

Scan: Fare Data (starting in late June)

Focus: Data that drives a Regional “Fare Calculator”

Scan of data models TRANSMODEL – Fare Collection Requirements &

Business Package TCIP 1.0 and 3.0 – Fare Collection Business Area UTFS (CFMS) – “Fare Policy Framework”

Fare Calculation Tool Requirements Do you know of any of any tools?

C-CAM / OMB “Common Accounting Language”

Transit Service Information Portal Concept

TSIP will provide Access to Transit Service Information.

Actors (users, systems) can lookup and request information via standard interfaces.

Authorized Actors can use services to view, edit, or process data, including key stakeholder groups like Regional Transit Planners, Transit Providers and Customers

Task & ScheduleTask 2 & 3 – 11 Months

Task 4 – about Month 6

Task 5 – 11th Month

Task 2: SDP Extensions Planning Data Real Time / Status Data Fare Data

Task 3: TSIP RequirementsTask 4: External TSIP

RequirementsTask 5: Procurement

Any Volunteers ??

White paper:-- Industry scan: Issues, architectures, standards-- Survey on Situational Data Needs for region

Fare Data – FC TWG (Tasks and Deliverables)

White Paper-- Industry scan: Models, tools and issues-- NY Fare Policies

SDP Maintenance Project -- RSTWG

Maintain SDP XML Schema et al with SDP Regional Stakeholder Technical Working Group (RSTWG).

Process Schedule Data (for NY511) – currently 6 data sets; expect 11 by end of year.

Develop registration web site to automate exchange: Providers process, validate and load SDP, and Consumers (NY511) get SDP Other tools to view, edit, and disseminate SDP documents

Support new providers: two close to ready; 1 under development.

Technical support to users and NYSDOT contractors as needed.
