The typified solution for control of school transport and increases in safety of pupils. Widespread introduction of the solution "School Buses" will allow to solve a problem of decrease in number of accidents, relevant for the majority of Russian regions, in which children suffer.
New development of RNT is based on technologies of the platform of monitoring of Avtotreker transport based on which the largest dispatching centers and management systems for transport for operators of the freight and passenger traffic, different municipal services and commercial enterprises of different scale operating practically in all industries of the Russian economy are created. Application Avtotreker guarantees reliability and scalability of the School Buses system, the high level of technical maintenance and also a possibility of interaction with services of quick response and integration of school transport into the dispatching systems of municipal and city scales. Use of GLONASS as fixed asset of positioning allows to reduce costs on the implementing solution "School Buses" as in the next years GLONASS sensors will become normal equipment on all school transport.
The solution "School Buses" allows to organize multilevel operating control behind school transport from school, structures of the Ministry of Education and local authorities. So, the dispatching center of school in real time obtains complete data about each bus servicing school. In the regional dispatching Ministries of Education information on transport of all subordinated schools, and comes to city and regional dispatching offices — about the buses which are in a zone of their responsibility. It allows to control timeliness and correctness of reactions of the manager to emergence of emergency situations, if necessary to connect services of reaction and also to make the objective information about each school bus available at all levels of management — up to the head of local administration and the Minister of Education of the region.
The solution "School Buses" contains a complete arsenal of tools for control of school transport, and use of special versions of the client software "AT-Nablyudatel" allowed to integrate all functions and to simplify work with a system. So, the subsystem of planning allows to develop directly on electronic cards routes and to assign to them school transport. For each route the binding to schools and the vehicles (V) and also nodal points, the sequence of their passing and the schedule are set. Besides, it is possible to define additional restrictions, for example, the admissible motion speed and zones of the permitted location of the CU. A system controls work of school buses in real time: automatically traces and displays their location and movements on digital maps, reveals deviations from the schedule, an exit of the CU for borders of the permitted area, speeding and any other violation of the set restrictions — and immediately informs the manager.
Constant automatic control of restrictions significantly increases security of trips of pupils. At the same time an obligatory element of the solution "School Buses" the "disturbing button" which is instantly transferring to the manager information on danger shows. Regular systems capabilities can be expanded over a wide range, for example, due to installation of additional technical means for reserved listening of salon or communication with the driver. Besides, the solution "School Buses" can be integrated with other development of RNT — the Safe Driving system. It allows to control objectively individual style of driving, to obtain the additional information about potentially dangerous situations, for example, about sharp slowing down and evolution, high-speed passing of turns, etc.
Especially for the School Buses system the complete set of reports allowing to carry out retrospective job analysis of transport on different cuts was developed (for example, along a certain route, the vehicle, etc.). The magazine of objective data of monitoring can be used also for improvement of an organizational management system for transport, and in the system of motivation of drivers, and when conducting investigations.
"Statistics demonstrates that on the Russian roads constantly there are accidents claiming health and the lives of children. Each such case — the tragedy, but is even more terrible that these cases occur constantly. Safety of transportation of school students became an original problem against which the authorities really try to fight. Today school transport — the best that can be made for protection of children from a set of dangers to which they are exposed on the way to school and home. It is case, new to our country, and here it is necessary not just to copy others experience, and at once to organize work so that to break a situation. In particular, important not only to toughen security requirements, but also to achieve their strict execution. And here satellite monitoring of transport where the Russian developments overtake foreign both on functionality, and on flexibility, and on price characteristics can become exclusively useful tool, – Nechayev Ivan, the chief executive of Russian Navigation Technologies company says. – At implementation of monitoring on school transport it is necessary to reduce as much as possible initial costs and cost of maintenance to make the solution available to mass implementation. Certainly, such economy should not go to damage of functionality. Therefore, developing the solution "School Buses", we carefully selected really necessary functions and integrated them in a convenient ergonomic manageable complex. The vast majority of customers will have enough regular opportunities of the solution. At the same time, the Avtotreker platform guarantees that if necessary it will be possible to scale a system and to increase its functionality practically in any direction. Should tell that for RNT creation of the solution "School Buses" was and remains the project expressing social responsibility of the company".
