Accessible location-aware travel information and resources

Objective

ALTAIR assessed the feasibility of developing a multilingual application for online ticketing which provides cross-border public sector transport information to mobile travellers and tourists. The project studied user needs and technological feasibility, examined cross-border legal and regulatory issues, examined a prototype and studied the reaction of users in three European cities. Following this phase, a business case was prepared to secure funding from the private sector for commercial exploitation of the system throughout Europe.

The innovative e-ticketing function combined with a multilingual mobile platform for public sector travel information created a unique solution to the problems of cross-border travel for tourism and business. The project developed a proposal for a common European standard to aid the integration of travel and transport information between public sector content providers and private sector technology suppliers and web publishers.

The project has registered a web domain: http://www.ticketmobility.com(opens in new window) which aims to become a multilingual portal providing access to public transport information for major European cities running the online ticketing system.
