• Abstract:
  The Transit Operations Decision Support System (TODSS) Project was initiated to address concerns raised by transit agencies that have implemented and are using Automated Vehicle Location (AVL) and Computer Aided Dispatch Systems (CAD). This document provides core functional requirements for AVL/CAD systems to use in identifying and prioritizing service disruptions and providing options service restoration strategy options to in response. When these are incorporated into Core TODSS AVL/CAD systems they should help address the above concerns and assist dispatchers in responding to service disruptions more quickly and effectively than they are able to do today.
