KM.GIS

Public traffic registration and planning

• Municipal traffic planning and service
• The registration of bus and tram stops equipment
• Connection search
• Time analysis and timetable planning

The KM.GIS application developed by ASTEC is based on the Smallworld technology and provides complex solutions supporting the operations of public transport services. This system enables the exact modelling of transport network objects, including their attributes and real location on the map. Both its architecture and the technology used allow undertaking different spatial-topological analyses. This is possible due to integrating in one system the elements including: resource description databases, topography (the geographic location of elements) and topology (mutual connections between objects in the network). The KM.GIS system may be seen as the central module of corporate IT system, which can be integrated with other subsystems, such as dispatcher module (e.g. telemetry, GPS), accounting module (investment planning, maintenance costs), and personnel module.

The advantages of KM.GIS implementation

• Full network infrastructure registration (bus and tram stops equipment, means of transport, network facilities)
• Investment costs planning, including network extension and the enhancement of bus and tram stops equipment
• Arrangement of documentation and maps
• Adequate and quick reaction to occurring traffic difficulties (setting out alternative routes and efficient stock management)
• Publishing up-to-date timetables and maps with the connection search option (e.g. in the Internet)

Application modules

KM.GIS Management of traffic network resources

• Efficient routes design
• Bus and tram stops equipment registration
• Estimation of network load and means for network handling
• Timetable planning and analysis which can be immediately published (e.g. on the Internet)

KM.GIS Registration and network model

Application data model:

• Communication network
• Schematic communication network
• Registration of fixed assets such as bus and tram stops equipment (timetable, bench, bus shelter, litter bin) or other control facilities

KM.GIS Schematic plans

The automatic generation of a simplified route view.

KM.GIS Connection search

Efficient connection search "from A to B" and search results optimisation, including preferred mean of transport, changes, and route length.

KM.GIS Transport time and timetable planning

Estimation of average ride time considering different means of transport and time of day. This module enables the import of existing timetables.
