4Tel's Passenger Information and Display System
4PIDS collects the real-time position information of any train, tram, coach, bus, ship, ferry, light rail or mobile phone user.
- Real-time information feeds for passenger information displays, public address speakers and customer help points.
- Layers of data are collected from multiple sources to maintain accuracy.

Trusted and used by transport operators across Australia
Up-to-date Information
4PIDs processes GPS and track-circuit data against route timetables to create a real-time information feed for Passenger Information Displays, Public Address and Customer Help Points.
This location information is then integrated with timetable/schedule information and applied to a complex predictive algorithm producing an accurate data stream for each passenger information device.
Layers of Data to Maintain Accuracy
4PIDs can collect inputs from multiple data sources including:
- GPS receivers
- Track-circuit signaling telemetry
- Fixed waypoint detectors
Should a data-source lose its connection, the system will utilise the next best available source. If no-real time source is available, the system will automatically fall back to timetabled information for passenger information display.
Variance Calculations
4PIDs software calculates the variance of actual running data to the planned timetable for accurate service information. This includes delay, cancellation and termination information.
