Where's the bus?
For Digital Future | December 5, 2007
Can you imagine being in the public transport stop with a clock to tell you the exact time it takes to pass the bus? Yes, it is already possible with GPS long but even so the municipalities have not yet taken advantage of their chances (apart from power to ask when the bus passed with a text message from the mobile). On all sides it? No, because we have begun to conduct tests in Madrid, with new technologies as GPS only works for outdoors ... we think, and if a bus goes through a tunnel? because there is a solution.

Ekahau ha estado trabajando, conjuntamente con Neomedia , desde el 2005 para crear una solución que pueda hacer el seguimiento de unos 2000 autobuses estén situados tanto en el exterior como dentro de subterráneos. The Regional Transportation Consortium de Madrid (CRTM) promotes a future platform for real-time location (RTLS) based on Wi-Fi. Ekahau has been working together with Neomedia, since 2005 to create a solution that can track of some 2,000 buses are located both outside and inside subways.
) que tienen para el seguimiento de la localización exterior. The solution provides mobile location CRTM the ability to better manage and coordinate buses when they go to any intercanviador, underground, complementing the solution of global positioning system (GPS) that have for tracking the location abroad. , los operadores de los intercambiadores tienen ahora más control del horario del autobús y son capaces de informar los viajeros sobre dónde están los autobuses en cada momento. With the RTLS solution based on Wi-Fi, operators of interchanges now have more control of the bus schedule and are able to inform travelers about where buses are at any given moment. In fact, they can locate buses in real time with an accuracy of two or three meters. The location technology also helps in maintaining, providing location information to mechanics so they can reach the bus and quickly resolve any problems.
) se convierte en una de las entidades líderes en innovación con respecto al transporte de pasajeros. With this initiative, the Consortium (CRTM) becomes one of the leaders in innovation with regard to passenger transportation. Currently the system data is not sent directly to passengers and that the information system is another parallel project but that will soon be implemented in the city.
