Agenda:
• Introduction on Mysore-ITS
• Why ITS?
• Scope of the Project.
• Key Challenges.
• Lessons Learnt.
• ITS - Benefits for Fleet Managers.
• ITS - Benefits for Commuters.
• Why ITS?
Intelligent Transport System well
known as ITS
• For KSRTC, customer is king, if we provide real time bus
information or benefits in terms of reduce waiting time and
uncertainty, increase the accessibility of the system, increase
the safety of users, more passengers will use public transport.
• Using ITS we can provide real time information to public and
also ITS allows monitoring and tracking of fleet of buses on real
time.
• ITS is nothing but applying technology to transportation, to
improve quality of information and to monitor and tracking
complete fleet.
• This technology is based on GPS-GPRS enabled navigation
systems and supported by information and communication
technologies.
VMU
ITS covers core systems such as Vehicle Tracking System, Real Time Passenger
Information System and Central Control Station. Core technologies include
Geographical Positioning System (GPS), Electronic Display Systems, and
Information & Communication Technologies. The Global position system (GPS)
mounted as part of the Vehicle Mounted Unit in the bus will receive the longitude
and latitude coordinates from the Satellite through a process of triangulation. This
information is then sent across to the Central Control station through the wireless
communication link ? GSM / GPRS. The application at the Central control station
on receiving the position inputs will update the display boards at the bus shelters
/ stops enroute and at the bus terminal platform display panel and the general
display panel at the related bus terminals.

Key Challenges
• Challenges in route geo-fencing due to lack data availability.
• For Installation Buses available only during night.
• Different types of buses.
• Longer installation time than planned.
• GPRS coverage issues due to Dark Spots inside the City.
• Non Availability of Power supply in Bus Shelter for PIS.
• Security for PIS Display boards.
• Insurance for PIS Display boards.
• Geo-fencing of the bus stops in Rural area.
• Initial resistance from vehicle crew on the proposed changes.
• Adherence of schedule and geo-fenced areas.
• Training for crew (2700 Crews)
ITS - Benefits for Fleet Managers
a. Real Time Control on Fleet.
b. Disciplined Operation of Buses.
c. Control on Bunching of Buses.
d. Availability of Buses During Peak Hours Based
on Commuter Requirements.
e. Planning And Scheduling to Match the
Ground Reality.
f. Effective Fleet Management.
