The
dynamic information system
for passengers will handle trip information and seat reservation
data, according to a common database structure. Automatic upload
of information to trains will reduce time, manpower and errors,
improving the quality of service and favouring inter-modal operations
as well.
Based
on the train-ground communication infrastructure, the service will
bring to a new quality level in delivery of information to passengers,
both regarding trip information and seat reservation data. Passengers
will be informed about destination, route, delay on schedule, platform
arrival, connections and so on. Reservation data will be uploaded
to the train directly from ground offices, reducing the time limit
for reservations before train departure and assuring that updated
information are timely available on-board, for passengers to find
or check their seats.
The
application will be validated through a limited scale demonstration
of operation in real service, with data interchange between operators
in different countries.
