Presenting demand-responsive transit on an equal level as fixed-route transit
TRB International Conference on Demand Responsive Transit in Monterey, California / 31-October-2014
9/8 THUR 10:45 | Statewide Regional Evacuation Study Program 2APA Florida
Bob Hamm
With an updated Evacuation Study for each of the 11 regions, Florida has one of the only statewide evacuation studies in the Nation. This session will educate participants on its fundamentals,
including HOW and WHY it was created and its implementation across a variety of planning disciplines. Explanations of the major components of the Evacuation Study, including its complex
evacuation transportation models, statewide coordination, behavioral surveys, and associated behavioral assumptions and advanced GIS modeling tools. Planners will gain a better understanding of the purpose, data and methodology of the Studies and how to implement its findings in their planning documents
Exploring UK Bus And Train Data With TransportAPIProgrammableWeb
Harry Wood, Software Engineer, TransportAPI.com
TransportAPI provides UK public transport data with live and timetable information for bus, train, and tube, available to developers through an easy to use API. UK transport data is a complex and shifting landscape. In this workshop we'll talk through some of the challenges we're facing, and how we're working to solve them to take the pain away for developers (inviting more feedback and suggestions from the API community!). We'll look at the resulting API and a tour of the different data offered, some examples of how it might be used, and some bespoke work we're doing for clients.

Flow maps show the movement of some phenomenon, normally goods or people, from one place to another. Lines used to symbolize the flow are typically varied in width to represent differences in the quantity of the flow. In broad terms there are three main types of linear flow map: radial, network and distributive. Radial flow maps have a spoke-like pattern because the features and places are mapped in nodal form with one place being a common origin or destination. Network flow maps are used to show interconnectivity between places and are usually based on transportation or communication linkages. Distributive flow maps typically show the distribution of commodities or some other flow that diffuses from origins to multiple destinations. An additional type of flow can be mapped using vectors, usually represented by arrows, to show direction and magnitude. These vector-based flow maps show flow for many points within an area. In this presentation, learn how you can make all these types of flow maps using ArcGIS. Using a variety of examples, we explore ArcGIS’s capabilities to map flow in both static and dynamic displays.

Disaggregate accessibility planning using OSM data and OpenTripPlanner - Stat...OSMFstateofthemap
*** Presented by Andrew Byrd at State of the Map 2013
*** Full schedule available at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_2013
OpenTripPlanner (OTP) is an open source multi-modal journey planner with a particular emphasis on public transport and bicycle itineraries. OTP combines OpenStreetMap data with open timetable feeds in the GTFS format to create its representation of a transportation network.
The OpenTripPlanner Analyst (OTPA) modules build upon the core journey planner to provide travel time mapping and accessibility visualisation for use in town planning, transport planning, and public consultations. OpenStreetMap data allows OTPA to consider pedestrian and bicycleconnectivity at high spatial resolution, sidestepping the problematic spatial aggregation of data.
Our presentation will cover the use of OpenStreetMap data in OTP Analyst studies, the advantages of working with OSM data, and direct participation in the OSM community by local transportation authorities.

This is the presentation from a webinar focused on communicating useful knowledge and context for sketch planning and other planning initiatives within transit. The topics covered included basic philosophies in transit planning, common considerations that can be anticipated when planning for and kicking off a transit project, and helpful transit planning data resources. The Transitmix team provided demonstrations throughout the presentation on how their app can help local governments and communities work together to achieve transit planning goals.

Presentation by Jared Jageler, David Adler, Noelia Duchovny, and Evan Herrnstadt, analysts in CBO’s Microeconomic Studies and Health Analysis Divisions, at the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists Summer Conference.
This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.
Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

8. Even better: Integrating presentation of
fixed-route and DRT.
California’s Inland Empire is implementing a trip
planner that uses open-source software for DRT
and fixed-route trip planning.
• Open-source “OneClick” software
(https://github.com/camsys/oneclick)
• Utilizes OpenTripPlanner for fixed-route
planning (www.opentripplanner.org)
14. Lessons from fixed-route transit
• The General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS)
has become the de facto standard for fixed-route
transit schedules
(https://developers.google.com/transit/gtfs/reference)
• Many hundreds of GTFS feeds in the USA;
hundreds more worldwide
• GTFS enables public transit information to be
used in hundreds of applications, including:
• Customer-facing applications such as
Google Maps, Rome2rio.com,
OpenTripPlanner, Mobile apps
• Planning and management contexts
16. But, there is no equivalent standard
for DRT services
• OneClick uses its own approach to describe
DRT services and areas
• Even General Service Dial-A-Ride and “Flex”
or Deviated Fixed-Route service do not show
up in Google Maps (except Uber)
17. Adapting GTFS for DRT
• One possible approach is to adapt GTFS
• One of the benefits of this approach is the
ability to describe related, and deviated services
in the same dataset as fixed-route
• GTFS Flexible Transit Working Group
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/gtfs-flexible-wg)
• Data needs:
• Geospatial
• Schedule windows
• Fares
• Eligibility
• Link to reservations mechanisms
18. Active proposal by Brian Ferris
http://bit.ly/flexible-public-trans
• Route deviation: Resembles scheduled fixed-route, with
geographic zone(s) allowing flexible routing
• Point deviation: Except for some established stops, the
path of the vehicle is undetermined
• Dial-A-Ride and Demand-Responsive Connector
• Request Stops (Hail-and-Ride)
19. Applications for flexible GTFS
• Taxis
• Rural and suburban transit
• Specialized & human service transportation
• Developing world (jitneys)
20. Chicken and egg problem
• If no applications why create data? If no data,
why create applications?
• Solution:
• Implement apps and data at the same time
in a regional or interregional context
