Public Transport Case Studies
QinetiQ AVAS
The Project
QinetiQ were building a system to enhance the information available to drivers through in-car satellite navigation systems. The aim was to allow drivers to plan journeys based on cost, environmental impact and changing circumstances (for example: local weather or car park occupancy).
The system relies on real-time information to provide updates to the driver en-route, and automatically recalculate the optimum journey.

BT Manchester Portal
Learn how Rockshore worked in conjunction with BT to deliver a retail portal to Manchester with an integrated multi-modal travel planner.
The Project
BT were developing a new concept in city-focussed web portals - well designed portals that showcase the best a city has to offer in business, shopping, entertainment and transport.
Critically, the portals would integrate multiple real-time data feeds relevant to the city; including weather, news feeds, traffic updates, regional bus, tram and train information and a national journey planner.
