Integrate Information of Highway Bus Routes on SuperWebGIS

SuperGeo Technologies, the leading global provider of complete GIS software and solutions, assisted the administrations of Directorate General of Highways in establishing, unifying, and integrating the data of bus routes and stations through the Internet to provide decision strategies and multiple query functions for the public in Taiwan.

In Taiwan, bus stops belong to different administrations. Hence, it is difficult for the public to find traffic information which is not well-integrated and distributed via a single platform. To encourage the usage of public transportation and enable them to query bus information such as routes, stop information, etc., the “Highway Bus Information System” was announced to public in 2009.

Initially, the system cannot fully satisfy the local government with managing information and enable users to easily query bus info due to discordant formats of bus stops. By utilizing SuperWebGIS, the project achieves to investigate and compile the information of bus routes and stops thoroughly nationwide; additionally to comprehensively integrate spatial and attribute data which are related to countrywide operating bus routes of the 1,300 roads.

By accessing the system, the public can query required bus information via the Internet, mobile phones, or telephones and receive references for planning their itineraries. For the government, the Highway Bus Information System not only promotes the use of public transportation but also help achieve the goal of Energy Conservation and Carbon Reduction.
