Four reasons to ride with us
Stay informed with geofencing
With automatic vehicle location (AVL) capabilities, you can create geofences to ensure that your fleet is where it needs to be and get reports on each vehicle to optimize operations and maintenance. Get automatic alerts when a bus deviates from its route or if your driver is traveling above the speed limit.
Track your vehicles with geolocation
Track your fleet in real-time with geolocation. Get information about the individual travel time of each bus and how long it stayed at specific locations. This information can be used to optimize routes and analyze the performance of your bus and driver. In an emergency, you always know what issue to address and where.
Get insights and improve your operations with analytics
With IP-based security solutions, you can tap into analytics and get insights into your daily operations. Analytical information such as fuel usage, braking, driving speeds, and more can be provided automatically. You can put the data to good use to judge driver performance, cut costs on fuel, set vehicle maintenance reminders, and record keeping.
Spend less time and storage on video offloading
When buses and trains return to the station, they have limited time to offload video. Beyond that, if thousands of vehicles each have 8 hours or more of footage to upload, offloading requires a lot of time and storage. With selective transfer, we only transfer bookmarked events such as collisions, altercations, etc.
How we can help with your transit operations
Onboard buses and trains
Offloading video surveillance footage from your buses and trains is simple with intelligent bookmarking. Only bookmarked events get transferred quickly and efficiently. A panic button push, collision detection or GPS sensor can trigger these events as well. The result? Improved security via live video feeds, while intelligent bookmarking, geolocation, and cellular and Wi-Fi video offloading improve safety and efficiency.
At stations and platforms
Providing the best passenger experience means always seeing what is happening throughout your stations and platforms. With an open architecture approach to physical security, you can centralize data collection and allow your security personnel to monitor, access, and react to any situation effectively. Analytics such as people counting and heat maps let you assess passenger flow to ensure a positive experience.
In transit facilities
Safeguard your property and equipment by investing in a physical security system that unifies video surveillance with access control. By having a unified view and control of your transit facilities, including administrative buildings, bus depots, and train yards, you can minimize false liability claims, prevent vandalism, and reduce damage to your extensive property.
