    Abstract

    In current public transportation of modern cities, the passenger volume analysis counts the bus passengers in multiple perspectives, and it is significant to optimize the bus scheduling and evaluate transportation capacity. On the smart card data of passengers taking buses, traditional solutions have inherent limitations about long processing delay, inaccuracy result and poor scalability. In this paper, the spatio-temporal correlation with business restrictions is considered, and an effective platform service for passenger volumes analyses are proposed on massive smart card. Our service has been applied in practical usage for three types of passenger volume, and holds minute-level latencies on weekly data with nearly linear scalability in extensive conditions.
