Are any proprietary standards used in the transmission or processing of APC data?
The first phase of data processing, bus stop and route identification, produces CSV files: a very common, public format used in Excel and many other major software. The valid data is then integrated in the software’s database. We have developed our own format to provide very good response times despite the large quantity of data produced, The data is made available to other software processes by exporting to CSV, DBF or MSACCESS formats via ODBC.
