挑战
Estuary Transit District needed a solution that could schedule both demand response and route deviation vehicles in the same software package. Their requirements included AVL, fully automated scheduling as well as dispatching and data communication.
关于客户
Estuary Transit District (ETD), located in Centerbrook, CT, was formed in 1981 by the nine towns of the Connecticut River Estuary Region to provide local, coordinated public transportation for residents of the Old Saybrook, CT area. ETD, DBA 9 Town Transit, operates 4 flexible routes (fixed stops with route deviations) and ten vehicles total throughout the region with transfer corridors to New Haven, New London and Middletown. ETD provides up to 90 trips per day, not including walk-ons on the flexible routes. Transit or Dial-A-Ride service is also available in all nine towns on a limited schedule Monday through Friday. ETD is managed by First Transit, a nationally recognized, Cincinnati-based management company. Estuary Transit District was named CTAA’s Rural Transit System of the Year for 2011. The CTAA cited ETD’s expansion of service for customers and the deployment of the comprehensive Ecolane technology solution as the main reasons for the award.
解决方案
Ecolane was awarded the contract which featured several Ecolane products, including: Ecolane DRT automatic scheduling and dispatching software, Ecolane MDTs with AVL and real-time manifest updates, Ecolane Fixed Route and Route Deviation software, Ecolane Self-Service Reservations, and Ecolane SMS text messaging announcing vehicle arrivals to customer cell phones.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
