P Blomquist, J Engstroem

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The intention of this project was to show how the use of modern information technology could improve information to passengers, bus drivers and traffic control officers about bus departures and arrivals. The report describes the field tests. The purpose of the field tests was to show a working system for positioning of long range bus traffic. The goal was to establish what demands the business should set for the information that is made available through the system, and how the system should be constructed.
