无线互联网服务（WIS）正在通过多个市场在荷兰越来越多地实施。最近，出现了通过公共交通服务提供水信息系统的想法。然而，WIS对火车旅行者，特别是商务旅行者的影响尚不清楚。在一项研究中，研究人员对受访者进行了调查，以了解WIS如何影响他们的旅行和工作表现。受访者还被问及他们是否愿意支付的WIS和他们的首选WIS的特点。总体而言，受访者对WIS持积极态度，并愿意平均每次旅行花费3.17欧元[1欧元= 1.28美元（2006年）]。此外，他们认为数据安全是最重要的WIS功能。因此，可以得出结论，工作信息系统值得实施的列车服务，为商务旅客作为一种手段，以提高他们的旅行和工作绩效在旅行。
Wireless Internet service (WIS) is finding increasing implementation in the Netherlands via several markets. Recently, the idea has emerged of providing WIS through public transport services. The impact of WIS on train travelers, particularly on business travelers, is, however, unknown. In a study to examine this impact, respondents were surveyed to find out how WIS might affect their travel and work performance. Respondents were also questioned about their willingness to pay for WIS and their preferred WIS characteristics. In general, respondents were positive about WIS and were willing to spend an average of €3.17 [Eur 1 = U.S. $1.28 (2006)] per trip for its use. Furthermore, they considered data security the most important WIS feature. Hence, it can be concluded that WIS deserves to be implemented in train services for business travelers as a means to enhance their travel and work performance during traveling.
