摘要: This Guidebook was developed at the request of the transit industry. It provides best practices for both transit managers and technical staff with respect to planning, implementing and using geographic data in transit. The Guidebook discusses issues and best practices for defining and using geographic locations of bus stops, routes and other map data that are needed for successfully implementing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), as well as for obtaining operational efficiencies. Transit managers play a critical role in the successful use of geographic data in transit. Section 2, titled Roadmap for Managers, includes a high level roadmap comprised of nine steps for managers that will help the operation of transit by improving spatial data usage in analyses, maps, customer information and ITS applications. In addition, the beginning of each section of the Guidebook contains an overview that is targeted to both management and technical staff. The overview orients the reader to purpose of the section with respect to improving transit and the issues to be discussed. All of the sections of the Guidebook have content that is relevant to Information Technology managers, GIS staff and ITS project managers. In anticipation that sections of the Guidebook may be read and used in a different order than presented, references to other sections are liberally included and the first occurrence of acronyms are spelled out at the start of each section. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
