| Summary | Unlike private vehicles whose travel route choice planning is particularly emphasized, bus itinerary planning requires a search algorithm considering the constraints imposed by line routes and stops. The purpose of this paper is to develop a heuristic search algorithm which is composed of pre-process for GIS data and itinerary planning for bus routes to generate alternatives and map guides of walking links for bus travelers. A case study using the bus system in Hsinchu City was conducted to demonstrate the algorithm and its potential applications. The results indicate that the algorithm can find all feasible alternatives in less than 2 minutes and can therefore provide a basis for future development of ATIS (Advanced Traveler Information Systems). |
