Pulse Lab Jakarta collaborated with Jakarta Smart City on a project to enhance transport planning and operational decision-making through real-time data analytics. Using data from TransJakarta – the city’s rapid bus transit system – buses and passenger stations, the project mapped origin-destination trends and identified bottleneck locations, information which can be used to identify whether new routes are needed. The project also explored the possibility of using real-time data to determine passenger-waiting times in order to enhance the efficiency of the bus dispatching system. The collaboration contributed to improvements in TransJakarta’s operations and enhanced capacity within Jakarta Smart City.
