Real-Time Passenger Information
Provide your passengers with the most reliable real-time information
In today’s fast-paced world, reliable and up-to-date information is essential for travelers to choose public transportation. With Gaia Public Transport, you can provide real-time information, secure forecasts, and relevant updates during incidents and disruptions. Enhancing your passenger experience and fostering trust and confidence in your services.
Consistent, accurate passenger information across all channels
Gaia Public Transport helps you collect, create, and distribute critical information to passengers through all available channels, including onboard vehicles, mobile apps, and signage at stops and transport hubs.
Onboard software for intelligent passenger information
Our Vehicle Platform features intelligent applications for destination signage, digital in-vehicle signage and stop announcements, ensuring the best possible passenger experience. The platform is connected to central logic, allowing the creation of passenger information that accounts for disruptions, traffic diversions, other vehicles, vehicle capacity, and planned trips.
Universal Traffic Control
Get ready for your future MaaS demands
Public transport plays a crucial role in promoting environmentally friendly and sustainable travel. We aim to make public transport the go-to option for travelers by making it accessible and reliable. Future travel will involve a mix of scheduled and on-demand trips, and the simpler it is to plan and book these journeys, the better the passenger experience will be.
Flexible trip management for all types of traffic
Gaia Public Transport is designed to manage both scheduled and demand-responsive transit services, constantly focusing on daily traffic events. Traffic controllers can easily modify routes, set up replacement services, and activate on-demand transportation, all with the support of advanced routing engines that prioritize passenger safety and efficient bus operations.
View your real-time traffic performance
Gain an unparalleled overview of your real-time traffic performance, with visualizations of punctuality, occupancy rates, and the impact of disruptions on vehicles.
Beneficial even without fixed onboard technology
Our platform can be used together with Gaia Public Transport’s driver support app Pilot Mobile. It allows vehicles without fixed onboard technology to connect to the Traffic Control Application through the driver’s mobile. Trips become visible as drivers accept and commence trips, and real-time updates are displayed within the app.
Digital Guidance
Digital aids for inclusive public transport
Public transportation should be accessible and available for everyone. For individuals with special needs, such as older people, the visually impaired, or those with other limitations, traveling by bus or train can be challenging and at times even impossible. By using Gaia Public Transport’s real-time engine, you can create new smart functionality and services for those people.
Accessible public transport for the Visually Impaired
The app Guide is a visual aid specifically designed to support public transport journeys for visually impaired passengers. This user-friendly mobile app features text-to-speech functionality, allowing users to plan their trips, receive guidance to the appropriate stop and vehicle, and receive a notification when it’s time to disembark. The app has gained significant recognition and has been successfully implemented in a pilot program for visually impaired users in central Sweden.
