1 Using Archived Stop-Level Transit Geo-Location Data for Improved Operations and Performance Monitoring Robert L. Bertini Portland State University September 26, 2003

2 Objectives Trends in transit technology AVL and APC BDS system and data archiving Preliminary route level analysis Other examples Conclusions and future research

3 Automatic vehicle location (AVL) Determination of vehicle location Global positioning systems (GPS) Signposts Ground-based radio Dead-reckoning U.S. transit agencies 128 operational 172 planned

4 Automatic passenger counters (APC) Count boarding and alighting passengers Infrared beams U.S. transit agencies 60 operational 124 planned

5 AVL/APC in the Bay Area AC Transit Central Contra Costa Livermore/Amador Napa County Transit Santa Clara VTA Santa Cruz Sonoma County Transit Western Contra Costa San Francisco MUNI SamTrans TOTAL AVL 800 in [131 by 2005] [600] 80 [86] 54 [62] 0 [37] [362] 1804 [2518] APC [100] [135] 0 [36] 196 [467] Source: APTS Deployment in the United States Year 2002 Update, USDOT, 2003.

6 Archiving AVL/APC Data AVL not designed with archived data in mind. Most AVL systems do not deliver data for offline planning analysis. Transit agencies didn t insist on it. APCs designed with archiving in mind. APCs often only in 10-15% of fleet. TriMet system driven by APC pays for itself in saved reporting costs Source: TCRP H-28, Uses of Archived AVL-APC Data to Improve Transit Performance and Management.

7 About TriMet Serves 1.2 M population 575 mi M annual bus trips 206,600 daily bus boardings 95 bus routes 655 buses 8100 bus stops Also LRT, Paratransit

8 Performance measurement Measuring system performance is the first step toward efficient and proactive management. Increasing attention to transit performance Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual Quantitative/qualitative Passenger point of view Linked to agency operating decisions NCHRP Performance Based Planning Manual Accessibility Mobility Economic Development Improve reliability Reduce variability of system performance Delay Travel time Attract more riders Reduce operations costs Increase productivity Link to service standards

9 In the past Data collection more difficult Low temporal and spatial resolution Many people to collect little data Focus on limited, general, aggregate measures for external reporting Natural air conditioning

10 Today Unlimited coverage and continuous duration Design, extract and test specific measures Actual system performance Data management/processing challenges Need for generating relevant measures
