Challenge / Goal
Strætó bs has worked with DILAX since 2016. Before implementing an automatic passenger counting (APC) system, passengers were counted manually: Once a year students were hired to ride the buses for days and count every single person boarding and alighting. The collected data was then put into an analytics tool - again manually. Since this approach was expensive, time-consuming and complicated and the data was not precise, Strætó began to look for a different solution.
Solution
Until today DILAX has equipped 47 buses, almost 50% of the fleet, with APC systems. The collected data is directly fed into the software DILAX CItisense. There, various KPIs are differentiated:
- Line reports
- Users per line
- Peak hours
- Vehicle map
- Live data
