Mobility industry provider 647 Vix Technology has announced a commitment to support RTIG over air protocol. As part of its growing commitment towards Open Standards, the compay says this is an important step to allow ticket machines to send real time AVL updates to the Vix central systems. Of even more significance, it will also potentially allow electronic ticket machines procured by operators to interwork seamlessly with servers procured by local authorities.

Vix says that adoption of the RTIG standard will be in addition to the continuing use of the company’s proprietary protocols, enabling central systems to support both the existing and the RTIG standard. As a result public transport providers will be able utilise existing and new technology in parallel.”

    Is US tolling as fragmented and divided as some would have you believe? And are the technology suppliers so very entrenched? ITS International spoke to the market's leading suppliers.
