DESIGN AND ASSESSMENT OF AN ONLINE PASSENGER INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATED MULTIMODAL TRIP PLANNING June 2009

 

This paper presents the design and evaluation of an online passenger

information system for delivering personalized multimodal trip planning

services through the integration of wireless and Web-based communication

technologies.

 

The goal of the system is to provide real-time travel information throughout

the entire life cycle of an interurban trip. Before the full-scale deployment of

this type of system, it is essential to assess its impact on the involved

stakeholders through a pilot application.

 

The proposed system (ENOSIS) has been implemented and evaluated for

supporting travel decisions in Greece. An evaluation framework for assessing

the impacts of the ENOSIS system is proposed, and the evaluation results of

the ENOSIS pilot application are also reported.

The evaluation results provide significant evidence of the technical and

operational efficiency of the ENOSIS services, while it is shown that the

proposed system is cost effective.
