Abstract
Interest in travel patterns of the passengers, particularly with regard to daily transit use, increased with the introduction of the smart card system. We are focusing on how to use this information extract from the transit DB system and apply to transit system for better planning and operating of railway system. The study introduces the development of NxTIS (Next generation Transport Information System) and Real OD DB from the transit smart card data. The NxTIS consist of three functional parts: 1) Advanced Transit Demand Analysis System, 2) Optimizing Railway Scheduling system, 3) Multimodal Transit Network Analysis system. This system will be beneficial to transit agencies and land use planners for promoting more transit-friendly communities.
