Studies forecast high potentials of travellers willing to use alternative means of transport if provided with intermodal traveller information and having travel time advantages. Furthermore it is expected, that intermodal traveller information can contribute to the increase of public transport use and road network efficiency. A model for context-based traveller information support is the basis for the conceptual design of the integrated, intermodal traveller information system developed in the Austrian research project Vienna-SPIRIT. Moreover, a pilot traveller information system was implemented and tested in this project. The focus was on the integration of existing route planning and information services in one system providing integrated, context-based and intermodal traveller information support. The user can access this intermodal travel information from car navigation systems as well as from mobile devices such as handhelds and smart phones. After the successful tests transfer to operation and further developments are planned in several respects.

Der folgende Beitrag beschreibt ein Modell für diese situationsbezogene Reiseunterstützung, die daraus abgeleitete Systemarchitektur und deren Umsetzung im Vienna-SPIRIT-Pilotsystem.

Research paper thumbnail of Assisting orientation and guidance for multimodal travelers in situations of modal change

Proceedings. 2005 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2005., 2005

However, while car drivers are already assisted by advanced guidance and navigation facilities, continuous on-trip assistance for multimodal travelers is still in its infancies. Especially when it comes to situations of modal change, travelers get discouraged by increased complexity and missing information and guidance. Thus, our goal is to develop a palm-based personal travel companion for multimodal travelers. The work presented in this paper especially focuses on pedestrian orientation and guidance in complex public transport interchange buildings.

Research paper thumbnail of Assisting Multimodal Travelers: Design and Prototypical Implementation of a Personal Travel Companion

While car drivers are already assisted by advanced guidance and navigation facilities, continuous on-trip assistance for multimodal travelers is still in its infancy. Especially when it comes to situations of modal change, travelers get discouraged by the increased complexity and the lack of adequate information and guidance. Thus, the goal of our research over the past three years has been to integrate existing information systems and to design and implement the prototype of a digital personal travel companion for multimodal travelers. This paper discusses typical travel situations and possible barriers for people traveling on multimodal journeys. To address these challenges, functional requirements for a personal travel companion are derived from the analysis of the situations. The main sections of this paper describe our results focusing on personalized multimodal journey planning, mobile multimodal trip management, and smart-phone-based pedestrian orientation and guidance in complex public transport transfer buildings.
