We are happy to announce two new projects on American soil.

 

The first one, a 70-bus project in Ohio, comes through one of our long-term white-label customers. The second one, a 25-bus project in Arizona, comes through Icomera U.S. (www.icomera.com) that we have been working with since 2018.

 

The projects will be deployed in the next six months. 

After intense development the last few months, we are pleased to announce two major product enhancements

  1. New Journey API
    The newly released API makes integration between a partner’s passenger information system (PIS) and GeoSignage CMS super simple. Providing the API with data about the route, next stops and other journey-related information, GeoSignage CMS can be used to design the traffic information displayed to the passengers as well as associate other content like advertisement or tourist information with events like “Arriving Central Station”.

  2. Support of GTFS Realtime
    With the ability to consume a GTFS-RT feed GeoSignage CMS can fetch and show estimated arrival times of upcoming stops and display connections at transit hubs. This is without any middleware software.

34 new buses in Denmark will be equipped with GeoSignage CMS in the next year. The new project comes via a white-label partner.

On Tuesday and Wednesday next week, our CEO Johan Posse is attending the IT-Trans Expo in Karlsruhe, Germany. Reach out if you want to have a meeting!

Last week a 1000+ bus project came live in Gwangju Metropolitan City, South Korea. Our partner Nine Hightech launched its service with on-board displays showing entertainment, traffic information, advertising and local weather information with the concentration of pollution. GeoSignage provides the digital signage CMS that drives the displays. We are thrilled to enter a new market in Southeast Asia and we look forward to more projects together with our new partner. 

Today and tomorrow GeoSignage CEO Johan Posse is attending the APTA Expo in Orlando, USA. Do not hesitate to use any of our contact forms if you want to arrange a meeting!

We are happy to announce that today the World Expo in Dubai is launched with GeoSignage CMS driving screens on buses moving passengers to and around the Expo. More information to come!

In the next months, GeoSignage deploys a 100-bus project in Scandinavia with one of our long-term customers (using GeoSignage white-labelled CMS solution). As the Covid-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on the world and public transportation, we hope this new business is a sign that things are heading back to normal.

The GeoSignage CMS has long been a very appreciated and reliable system to improve passenger satisfaction in public transport. Now we extend our portfolio with a newly developed Automatic Vehicle Announcement System (AVAS) to help our partners and customers to provide passengers with accurate trip information. Compared to our CMS, our AVAS is a more powerful tool for configuring announcements, which together with our CMS will cover the absolute majority of the market requirements for on-board infotainment.

With the newly developed AVAS GeoSignage can take a larger responsibility towards our partners and customers in order to meet all requirements from public transport authorities.

“This is a great contribution to our portfolio. In the past we seen that potential partners and customers many times associate GeoSignage with only providing a system for on-board advertisements. With our new AVAS, I believe it will be very clear that we truly are an infotainment company offering the entire system suite, providing both passenger information at the right time and place while still enabling commercial opportunities with a powerful CMS for controlling messages and advertisements on-board.” – Carl Schander, Business Development Manager.

One of the benefits with using GeoSignage CMS has always been that the software can be installed and run well on almost any hardware. Time has proven the system to be extremely reliable, which the new AVAS benefits from since both systems use the same system foundation. This makes the GeoSignage AVAS a competitive, user friendly and reliable choice regardless of where in the world the system is to be used.

The GeoSignage AVAS is easily integrated with most existing on-board systems and can be up and running within very short time. Contact our sales department to learn more about how your company can benefit!

A Content Management System, CMS, is software that helps users create, manage, and modify content on a website, in digital signage or similar without the need for specialised technical knowledge. Today there are a broad variety of CMSs on the market, each developed with a specific application in mind.

The GeoSignage CMS is built for public transport from the first line of code. Thanks to this we have a system architecture that ensures extremely reliable operation on-board a vehicle. Running with flaky connectivity is business as usual for us while at the same time ensuring that the data usage is kept at an absolute minimum at all times.

In our system the user plans and controls various media through the web-based user interface. From which it’s easy to configure advanced trigger functionality, plan content to be broadcasted or upload web-applications for a dynamic playback.

Transferring information from our cloud based server to the on-board CPU is then done seamlessly and without any required actions from the user or  administrator.
