This case study shows how The Kings County Area Public Transit Agency uses mobile applications to increase the effeciency of their rural transit vanpool program. Each van is equipped with a WebTech GPS/Telematics Locator that is connected through the AT&T mobile broadband network and an in-vehicle WebTech Mobile Data Terminal (MDT). Transit staff can track a vehicle, identify who is driving by the log-in process, know how many riders are aboard, determine how far and fast the vehicle has traveled, and communicate with a hands-free voice system.
