FTA-Certified APC Cuts NTD Reporting Time by 75%
Rock Region METRO, the largest public transportation operator in the U.S. state of Arkansas, wanted to reduce the time and resources spent on National Transit Database (NTD) compliance. The agency recognized that manual passenger counting and statistical sampling were resource-intensive methods for maintaining eligibility for federal funding, which is why it implemented an automatic passenger counting (APC) solution tightly integrated with its CAD/AVL platform. Using Xovis' highly accurate APC sensors, integrated with Systrans' NAVINEO CAD/AVL platform, Rock Region METRO was able to:
Cut staff time spent on NTD reporting by 75%
-
Reduce monthly NTD preparation time from three days to one day
-
Enable staff to focus on higher-value tasks by reducing data compilation and validation efforts
The integration of Systrans’ NAVINEO CAD/AVL platform with Xovis passenger counting technology gives Rock Region METRO the accurate, real-time data we need to improve service, strengthen decision-making, and meet FTA reporting requirements with confidence.
