Transportation

Powering smarter movement 

Across rail, road, air, and sea with data-driven innovation.

Transportation companies depend on a wide range of critical data points to effectively forecast demand, optimise routes, and manage day-to-day operations. These data streams ensure that services run smoothly.

The Importance of Real-Time Monitoring in Transportation

Key information, such as traffic patterns, weather conditions, vehicle and driver performance, network capacity, and transport hub status, must be carefully monitored to ensure real-time transparency. This enables transportation companies to anticipate disruptions, optimise scheduling, and maintain effective communication with all relevant stakeholders.

Proactive Decision-Making and Operational Flexibility

Real-time access to data allows transportation companies to quickly respond to challenges as they arise, but it also supports proactive decision-making. Understanding network capacity and transport hub status enables operators to dynamically adjust services, minimise delays, optimise fuel usage, and enhance the overall customer experience.

Automating Data Workflows with FME

FME helps operators automate data workflows and integrate diverse data sources, ensuring all systems are synchronised and working together. Whether it’s real-time sensor data, traffic reports, or GPS data from vehicles, FME facilitates the transformation and movement of data between systems, creating a unified, real-time view of operations.

Cost Reduction through Operational Efficiency

Capacity strains, regulatory demands, fluctuating passenger and inventory levels are all challenges faced by transportation agencies that can be successfully met and managed by FME.

Elevated Customer Service

In the era of instant connectivity, passenger expectations have evolved to demand real-time information and personalized services. For transportation agencies this means going beyond operational efficiency and providing transparent, up-to-the-minute information.

By aligning GPS data with locations, schedules, individual customer preferences, live traffic updates, and even weather conditions, agencies can orchestrate a symphony of real-time information – distributed where and when it’s needed

Site Logistics Management

Navigate the logistical demands of large-scale construction projects with ease at airports, seaports, rail, and road. Transform 2D data into 3D models and employ geo-fence techniques that amplify control, establishing virtual perimeters that trigger alerts and actions when breached.

Meeting Regulatory Requirements

Achieving governance requirements for the collection, storage and distribution of data is a key management issue for most transportation organisations. FME is an enabler for harmonised, available, up-to-the-minute data.

Success Stories

Powered by Locus Expertise

Full Control of a critical data pipeline

Wellington Electricity relied on daily retailer files to keep their network records accurate but inconsistent formats made automation a real challenge. Partnering with Locus, they built a fully automated FME Flow pipeline that now runs daily with no manual touchpoints and no third-party dependencies.

90% Faster Data Processing

NZTA, Waka Kotahi was spending a full day manually downloading, compressing and sending photo attachments for newly installed network devices. By integrating FME into their survey workflow, that same process now runs in just five minutes.

50% Faster Biosecurity Reporting

Auckland Airport handles over 18 million passengers a year, making biosecurity monitoring mission-critical. Manual inspection reporting was slow and eating hundreds of GIS hours annually. By partnering with Locus and the help of FME and Esri automating the workflow, they cut manual effort in half.

Real Time freight visibility across the rail network

KiwiRail operates 900 freight trains a week and handles 18% of New Zealand's imports and exports. Manual GIS updates were taking hours every time a disruption hit. Using FME, they built a live freight disruption dashboard eliminating manual overhead and keeping freight moving.

60% Faster Water Data Requests

Auckland Council was taking up to 10 days to fulfil water resource data requests, a manual, approval-heavy process serving a city of 1.7 million people. By automating submissions, approvals, and data delivery with FME and Esri, that turnaround is now just 3–4 days, with better service and no manual bottlenecks.
