Object Counting: The Real Costs of Bikes and Prams
Challenge
Counting large objects, such as bicycles, prams and wheelchairs, does
not usually justify the effort of manual counts. Still, public transport
operators want to know if:
- The vehicle fleet is calibrated to the space demands of passengers
and objects - Passengers have proper ticketing, especially in the case of bikes
Transport operators need access to objective, real-time data about live
bicycle occupancy to avoid space shortages that could potentially interfere with operations.
Solution
Automatic People Counting (APC) is already an established process, one required
for government grants, for public transport companies, big and small. But more
operators are looking to:
- Monitor the performance of the vehicle fleet and capacity levels
- Improve ticket pricing models and community fare settlement
- Adjust vehicle fleet to better match trends in object transport
Benefits
Public transport operators constantly look for reliable solutions that help increase
efficiency, lower costs and:
- Optimize fleet management based on reliable passenger and object counts
- Increase revenue by ensuring appropriate ticketing for large objects
- Improve operations by making decisions on reliable data
