  1. BITS, Bridging the European ITS Business Co-operation with China Shanghai, 3-5 March, 2003 AVM case studies for Public Transport: innovative applications in Italy Marino Mazzon, Commercial Manager Thetis S.p.A., Venice, Italy www.thetis.it

  2. Summary case studies: • The Venice experience: a multi-user system • The Rome experience: a scalable system associated to the payment scheme • The Milan experience: a waste collection management system

  3. systems supplied by Thetis, using Transmodel • Rome, Jubilee Lines 110 buses • Rome, East Lines 132 buses • Rome, West Lines 132 buses • Rome, South Lines 130 buses • Vicenza, extra-urban buses 230 buses • Parma, urban buses 170 buses • Milan, waste collection trucks 600 trucks

  4. case study one:Orion,to manage transport in Venice features:multiuser architecturea service company experience:five years

  5. The “Orion” multiuser system Radar, other TV cameras GPS onboard systems • the service provider: positioning and fleet management data, turnkey maintenance • data: localization, environment, territory • In-field communication via radio or GSM, GPRS • real time data to users control rooms via ISDN lines • The idea is also suited to small size urban areas t r a f f i c Service centre Environmental data Territory accessibility users taxi emergency deliveries administration public transport garbage collection

  6. Effects • Municipality • sustainability of urban environment • better use of the city and its environment • Planning, statistics • fleet operators • improvement of transport efficiency (scheduling, loading, paths...) • improvement of services to users • Passengers • Better perceived service • Access to information

  7. modem modem The service provider structure meteo VHF Radio (2) UHF Radio (1) differential GPS radar GPS consoles database communications LAN router web DB server WEB server recording major users

  8. 60 LED panels in town provide next arrival times

  9. Case study two:fleet management and service quality reporting for the Rome Jubilee and peripheral bus lines(some 500 buses) features:GSM communicationEvent driven systemservice quality certification experience: two years

  10. The basis Bus operator companies are now paid per km of service performed and documented automatically. Excess delay causes penalty per km. Then an integrated process: • Bus service planning • Real time GPS Fleet management • Change recording • Bus log data recording • service quality reporting sw • invoicing Experience: some 500 buses in Rome

  11. The system authority Server Server WS WS . . . . . . . . router LAN router depot CDN line data files buses WLAN GSM/SMS telecom (GPRS) stops

  12. objectives • Real time fleet management • Passenger information: • onboard: automatic visual and audio announcements • at the stops: automatic messages, next arrival time • Periodical automatic reporting on service quality (actual versus planned), for invoicing purposes

  13. Arrival time messages at 125 stops are updated via GSM

  14. Case study three:waste collection in Milan (some 650 trucks) features:GPRS communicationEvent driven systemoptimization of post-service street maintenance experience: two years

  15. The PATH system: improving service performance GPS comparison Service, planning Service, actual GPRS Front end GPRS data, voice Onboard systems for 600 vehicles (HTTP clients) SUN Solaris Enterprise 420R HP Netserver • History data (XML compressed files): • Localisation, dead reckoning • Vehicle parameters, alarms • Service data (begin/end, where, when, ..) • Operators’ data (badge) • Findouts log (driver entered events) GIS, map matching, service reconstr. RDBM server

  16. The onboard system Fixed part: Vehicle identification device. Antennas, cables. Removable part: Integrated PC/driver terminal. Can be mounted on any vehicle: self reconfiguration. Can be quickly substituted to grant system availability.

  17. A possibility: urban integrated management of transport service • A city is a unique “system” • the central administration can be willing to optimise transport services to: • Reduce expenses reducing wasted km • Reduce environmental impact • Hence, a centralised service centre and an open, scalable architecture. Services: • Public transport • Garbage collection • Freight services • Emergency services
