As transport systems become more connected, more and more transport operators are using data in a variety of ways to improve customer outcomes. Authorities and operators are gathering data from ticketing systems to analyse passenger flows; or information from telematics systems to analyse bus fleet performance or Transport Operator performance; or combing this data to create additional insights; as well as using much of this data via real-time systems to provide up-to-date information to customers via a variety of channels around their travel options – vehicle arrival times, vehicle crowdedness or insights around delays and diversions.
During this virtual panel, hear from transport authorities and operators as they discuss how they are using data to improve their services today, what their challenges are with data and how they plan to use data in the future. Also, listen to one of Australia’s leading accessibility and inclusion advocates share how data, when used in the right way, can improve travelling outcomes for people with a disability.
