ITS Operational Test

Operational tests are needed to demonstrate and evaluate innovative approaches to integrating APTS technologies and available Information Technology (IT) systems and to better coordinate subsidized transportation services in rural areas among multiple transit operators. This test will allowing operators to use transit management software via a web application to manage the transit system's daily administrative activities, schedule trips, and to use Geographic Information System (GIS)-based mapping functions to route trips. The system will allow each of the seven transit operators to view trips or routes being made by each of the other operators, and will offer opportunities for coordination of trips and sharing of passengers.
