      <title>ITS Pilot Project at the Ohio State University</title>

      <description><![CDATA[The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Pilot project at the Ohio State University centers on exploiting automatically sensed data for improving transit planning and operations. This project supports development and demonstration of methods to estimate general traffic patterns from fleets of AVL-equipped buses, i.e., using buses as probes of traffic conditions, and to improve the estimation of traffic conditions by mounting inexpensive traffic sensors on buses, i.e., using buses as mobile platforms for traffic sensing. The project effort includes the development, testing, and validation of strategies to estimate origin-destination passenger flow patterns from automatic vehicle location (AVL), automatic passenger counter (APC), and automated fare collection (AFC) data.]]></description>

      <title>Automatic People Counting for Transportation Systems</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/1229310</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This is a continuation of a project that is looking at textel cameras to count passengers on public transportation. The objective of this work is to develop the software to be utilized with the camera hardware to not only provide data on the number of passengers that utilize a bus (or train) but the point at which each passenger mounted the bus and at which point each passenger disembarked the bus; and a log of this activity. This will provide previously unavailable information that can be used for route planning and more efficient use of a public transit agency assets.]]></description>
