公交站点是任何交通系统中的关键要素。随着智能交通系统(ITS)技术在公交领域的出现，公交机构需要保持最新的公交站点数据清单。不幸的是，大多数公交机构没有能够充分支持先进公共交通系统(APTS)应用的公交站点库存，许多其他公交机构根本没有库存。本文描述了一种公共汽车站库存的设计、开发和维护，该库存将支持一系列可用的APTS应用。重点介绍了亚特兰大大都会快速交通管理局(MARTA)公共汽车站清单编制过程中使用的程序。从Marta的经验中吸取的经验教训对正在计划或正在实施APTS的其他过境机构应该是有价值的。
Bus stops are a critical element in any transit system. The advent of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies in the area of transit has developed a need for transit agencies to keep an up-to-date inventory of bus stop data. Unfortunately, most transit agencies do not have a bus stop inventory that can adequately support Advanced Public Transportation System (APTS) applications, and many other transit agencies do not have an inventory at all. The design, development, and maintenance of a bus stop inventory that will support an array of available APTS applications is described in this paper. Procedures used in the development of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) bus stop inventory are highlighted. The lessons learned from MARTA's experience should be valuable to other transit agencies that are planning to or are in the process of implementing an APTS.
