Development of Transactional Data Specifications for Demand-Responsive Transportation
Demand-responsive
transportation (DRT) can produce benefits — fewer empty seats, lower cost per passenger, less delay
for customers — to both passengers and transportation service providers, particularly the
public and private nonprofit agencies that finance DRT services with public funds.
The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's
TCRP Research Report 210: Development of Transactional Data Specifications for Demand-Responsive Transportation presents a transactional data specification for DRT to facilitate interactions among the software systems that manage
these services.
A
validator software tool that verifies data messages generated by a software system is available as part of the project.
