The Evolution of Transportation Involves Actionable Business Intelligence, Wolf Ruzicka, Chairman

Drawing on real-world experience, this presentation will discuss how one metropolitan transit agency leveraged IoT, cloud technology, and real-time data analysis to improve bus ridership experience and take charge of its fleet operations. The audience will learn how real-time business intelligence and external APIs can be utilized to support innovation and evolution within public transportation. We will examine lessons learned, why we believe IoT works better with the cloud, and the steps cities should follow to ensure they can achieve actionable intelligence with IoT. We'll discuss how SaaS addresses common, yet unsolved, issues in public transit, which enables agencies to uncover vital efficiency gains across the entire system, specific routes, buses, trains, etc.
