Efficiency of Public Transportation Using Global Navigation Satellite System (Gnss)

Abstract

ABSTRACT:Motor vehicles are one of the biggest air pollution contributor in the city. Pollution getting worsened by poor public transport system in the city that caused lack of public services. In order to minimize the impact, so the focus not only by reducing the quantity of vehicles but also by managing the use of motor vehicles becomes more efficient. Through Global Satellite Navigation System (GNSS) as precise navigation tool, the patterns of transport system such as distance, duration, number of vehicle can be estimated accurately and more efficient. This research applied GNSS in the public transportation at Universitas Indonesia. Mode of transportation which we used in this research is campus buses or "Bis Kuning". We used quantitative experimental integrated with Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The results are GNSS can predict the patterns of campus buses, from the patterns we tried to connect with users of Bis Kuning satisfaction.

Review of Transit Data Sources: Potentials, Challenges and Complementarity

“…More recent developments include further satellite-based systems, notably including Glonass (a Russian system), Galileo (a European global navigation satellite system (GNSS)) and BeiDou (a Chinese system). A few references focusing on various transportation-related issues regarding these systems include [22][23][24][25][26].…”
