Abstract:Transit systems need to collect bus ridership data to evaluate operational efficiency and to comply with the reporting requirements for federal government subsides. Manual data collection, coding and summarization is a tedious, inefficient and expensive process. An automated data collection system such as the one produced by Multisystem was found to be the most cost effective and versatile system for Texas small transit agencies. The automated system consists of two software packages. The Check*mate software is used on a portable computer to collect ridership data, and the TIM software is used on a PC to correct, store and summarize the data.
