Rail Passenger Analytics – data driven solutions for stations and passengers

In the fast moving world the predictability of passenger journeys and operations has never been more important to the success of any rail transport infrastructure. Rail Passenger Analytics is a powerful platform that empowers the rail networks, station operators, and designers to optimise predict, analyse and optimise all aspects of passenger journeys. It enables smooth planning and operations of the stations and network, preparing for peak scenarios, mitigate congestion, and ultimately super-charge the outcomes such as revenues and operational efficiency.

Powered by our Analytics engine, Rail Passenger Analytics is a unique planning tool that enables clients to participate in optimising design and operations of their facilities.

Over 15 years’ experience in rail passenger analytics

The real-time design, visualisation and reporting capability has the potential to revolutionise how even the most complex space is planned, used and monitored. It provides a real-time, interactive ‘day in the life’ model of the existing and new builds. This enables key decision makers to rapidly test scenarios and options to see which one delivers the best outcomes – revenue, operating costs, passenger experience, and environmental impact.

Our rail passenger modelling tools enable us to test a wide range of options quickly and effectively to optimise station and passenger interchange design.
