Abstract Real time passenger information (RTPI) is commonly available in urban areas for immediately before and during journeys; however, non-urban areas (e.g. suburban, rural, and remote areas) often have little or no access to it. One of the main challenges in providing RTPI in rural areas is the lack of infrastructure for obtaining real time vehicle location, and for providing information to passengers. In the Informed Rural Passenger Project, we attempt to address this problem through the use of passengers' smartphones. We have developed GetThere, a smartphone app that crowdsources travel information, including vehicle location, from the passengers. This information is then integrated using linked data principles with open data from various sources, and used by various web services to provide RTPI to travellers in rural areas. Initial evaluation of the GetThere system has been performed on urban, suburban, and rural bus routes in the North East of Scotland.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
