Fleet management and enterprise-grade wireless connectivity
As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, improving connectivity on public transport has moved from an objective to a strategic imperative. Dealing with disruption, social distancing, and getting essential workers safely from A to B are all new imperatives to which public transport operators have turned to technology in order to meet. In Israel, for example, real-time traffic management systems were integrated into a Mobility-as-a-Service model to produce an on-demand transit routing algorithm that calculated the most efficient journey for each passenger and routed buses accordingly. While the system was implemented to deal with the current crisis, it could be here to stay and according to officials, may save the public $25m a year.
Telemetry data, real-time surveillance footage, advanced payment systems, GPS for route status apps, and rider Wi-Fi represent just a handful of the myriad technologies that will be key to launching and running similar initiatives around the world. All of the above are manifestations of the connected vehicle revolution, itself the result of the greater data capacity and high-speed connectivity of 4G LTE.
