Steve Mortensen Senior ITS Engineer Office of Research, Demonstration & Innovation Federal Transit Administration October 21, 2009 Background Transit Operations Decision Support Systems (TODSS): A USDOT Pilot Expert System for Transit Bus Fleet Management T3 Webinars are brought to you by the ITS Professional Capacity Building Program (ITS PCB) at the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (USDOT) ITS Joint Program Office, Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA)

2 The Problem AVL/CAD systems generate large quantities of data –Dispatchers do not have sufficient time to digest the data for decision making in a normal operating environment –Dispatchers are unable to recognize patterns of operational problems –Available data and AVL/CAD capabilities are not fully utilized

3 The Problem (continued) Late! Early! All Routes Malfunction Request To Talk ALARM ! v ? ? ? ! ! What is causing these problems! What problem is most important? How can I fix Each Problem ? What are the impacts to later service? Where is the nearest replacement bus ? Do we have extra drivers ? Has there been an accident ? HELP ! Off Route

4 The Solution -- TODSS Develop enhanced capabilities and tools to help dispatchers and field supervisors: –Identify and prioritize problems as they occur –Make decisions to resolve operational issues before they become problems –Manage problems or incidents as they arise –Restore service with minimal disruption to the transit system

5 Resulting Activities FTA and ITS JPO launched an effort to help develop TODSS: –Met with transit agencies to discuss problems –Conducted workshops with transit agencies and AVL/CAD vendors to discuss issues, needs, and recommended actions –Worked with the industry to developed TODSS concept and core requirements, which:  Identify and prioritize service disruptions  Recommend options for restoring service  Available at: –Conducted a competitive procurement to develop a prototype TODSS employing the core functional requirements  Awarded project to Pace Suburban Bus System in 2006

6 Core Functional Requirements Provide for a common understanding between vendors and agencies concerning TODSS Help vendors reduce the cost of customization Help agencies with procurement specifications Solve problem of AVL/CAD data overload for bus dispatchers
