Route Analytics

See every bus. Fix what matters.

Route Analytics turns your bus GPS and student tap data into a clear picture of how your transport service really runs. Replay any trip in 3D, see which stops are in the wrong place, spot buses that run late or overloaded, and find the routes that need attention, all in one place.

The overview: on-time arrivals, ridership and the routes that need attention, at a glance. Sample data.

What it is

Two data sources you already have. One clear picture.

Route Analytics is a transport management tool for schools. It brings together two things your buses already record, then compares them with your planned routes and stops.

01

Where every bus was

Bus GPS locations throughout every trip, morning and afternoon.

02

When every child tapped

Student tap on and tap off records, so you know who rode and where they boarded.

03

Compared with your plan

Routes, stops, stop order, seats and timings, checked against what actually happened.

The result is a single dashboard that shows what actually happened on every route, on every day, and a ranked list of the issues worth fixing. Transport managers can drill into any route, any stop or any trip, and replay it on a map to see exactly what the bus did.

Why it helps schools

Find problems before parents do.

Act early, not after complaints

Late arrivals, long rides and missed stops are flagged automatically, so your team can act early instead of reacting to complaints.

Know where children really get on

Each stop pin is compared with where children actually tap on, and you are told which pins to move and by how far.

Spot buses stopping where they should not

Unplanned stops near another route's stop are flagged, helping uncover children being moved between buses without the records showing it.

Use your fleet well

See how many children ride each route, how full each bus is, and which routes run well under capacity, so you plan seats and buses with real numbers.

Keep children safe

Speed is checked against the school bus speed limit, overcrowding is measured from children marked on and off, and long rides are highlighted.

Have the evidence in one place

Every flagged issue comes with the date, route, location and a suggested action, so conversations with bus operators are based on facts.

Issues to fix

Everything that needs attention, ranked and ready to act on.

A single list of everything that needs attention, sorted by type and route. Click any issue to see it on a map, or jump straight into the 3D replay at that moment. Every issue comes with a map, the evidence and a suggested action.

Phantom stops and possible child swaps

Wrong pins

Wrong assignments

Wrong stop order

Stops never served

Late to school

Overcrowding

Long rides

Overlapping buses

Every issue comes with a map, the evidence and a suggested action. Sample data.

Replay any day in 3D: every bus, every stop, every pickup, coloured by speed. Sample data.

3D trip replay

Watch any run play back on a 3D map of your city.

Each school bus is numbered and coloured by speed, with stops and actual pickup points shown along the way.

Pause

Scrub to any time

Follow a single bus

Fly straight to an issue

Ridership and utilisation

Plan your fleet with confidence.

See how many children board each route every day, the average, and how that compares with the seats available. The dashboard shows the distance and time each child travels, and highlights routes running well below capacity.

Riders per route, seat utilisation, and distance and time per child. Sample data.

⏱

Punctuality and speed

Arrival times at school are tracked for every morning run, so you can see which buses are on time and which are consistently late. Speed is measured along each trip and checked against the school bus speed limit, with any time over the limit recorded.

◎

Stop accuracy

For every stop, the pin on the route plan is compared with where children actually tap on. You see whether the pin is right, should move, or whether children are boarding somewhere else entirely, so your stop list stays accurate.

How it works

From GPS dots to clear decisions.

1

Connect your data

Bus GPS locations and student tap on and tap off records.

2

We compare it with your plan

Routes, stops, stop order, seats and timings.

3

You get the answers

A dashboard, a 3D replay and a ranked list of issues to fix.
