Challenge
Improve the overall performance and user experience of the bus fleet management software
Objectives
Implement tracking of bus movement and resource allocation
Update the dashboard to achieve data accuracy
Make the user interface more intuitive
Solution & functionality
The team developed an advanced interactive dashboard system for the bus fleet GPS tracking with a user-friendly interface and focus on precise real-time data tracking.
Interactive dashboard with GPS tracking and alerts
Our team created a dynamic dashboard using data from IoT sensors, integrated with an Azure SQL database. Due to their ability to process and manage large datasets, the dashboard allows real-time tracking of buses and sending timely updates on bus positions, arrival times, any delays or schedule deviations, as well as passenger numbers.
Enhanced data accuracy
The system is designed to handle and analyze complex datasets, making predictions and assessments. The predictive algorithms evaluate past and current traffic data to recommend optimal routes and assess trends in passenger numbers. Through analysis of traffic patterns, weather conditions, and previous delays, the system foresees potential disruptions for planning. Altogether, these features help refine the transport schedules and bus frequencies, helping to reduce expenses and nurturing clients’ loyalty.
Viewer and administrator roles
The dashboard holds distinct user roles to accommodate diverse levels of engagement and operational requirements.
Viewer role
With the viewer role, users can access an interactive map with current bus positions, route status, and estimated arrival times in real-time, and a flexible analytics dashboard giving predictions about possible disruptions, allowing for route and scheduling adjustments and sharing reports.
Administrator role
Users with the administrator role have full control and supervision over the dashboard’s configurations and processes with data. They can customize the dashboard’s interface and features to evolving requirements and manage user access levels.
Results and business value
The new interactive dashboard for the bus fleet management software contributed to a more efficient, timely, and reliable transport service.
