Simplify APC Reporting and Certification

Designed for transit agencies managing complex ridership data, TransTrack’s APC Module simplifies Automatic Passener Counter (APC) certification for NTD reporting.

Automate data cleansing, expansion, and validation with built-in statistical support.

How the APC Module Works

The APC Module imports and consolidates data from APC, AVL, and fare systems, then applies validated cleansing and expansion methods to prepare your data for certification and reporting. 

Customize processing at a granular level, from individual stops to boarding and alighting patterns and load profiling.

With built-in statistical support and full transparency into how data is processed, stakeholders can confidently understand and trust the results.

 

 

What the APC Module Delivers 

  • Automate APC data cleansing and validation
  • Apply statistically sound expansion methods for accurate reporting
  • Eliminate manual workflows and spreadsheet-based processes
  • Ensure compliance with FTA certification standards
  • Gain full visibility into how your data is processed

Streamline Ride Sampling with the Ridecheck App

As part of the APC certification process, ride sampling must align with cleansed APC data within a 5% variance.

The Ridecheck app simplifies this process by eliminating paper-based data collection and reducing manual entry. Scheduled trip information is automatically imported, and once a trip is completed, data is seamlessly exported into the TransTrack system for tracking and variance reporting.

This ensures faster validation, improved accuracy, and a more efficient path to APC certification.

Access the Reports You Need for NTD Reporting 

TransTrack consolidates all the data required for NTD reporting into one centralized system, giving you immediate access to over 270 pre-built reports and hundreds of measurable metrics.

Key reports include:

  • Daily APC Ridership Data
    Monitor stop-level boardings and alightings, trip load, and APC hardware errors. Alerts are automatically sent to maintenance teams for faster resolution.
  • Executive Management Report
    Analyze three-year trends and filter by route, fare type, passengers, revenue miles, revenue hours, farebox recovery ratio, and operating cost per passenger.
  • Route Plan Data
    Build accurate service calendars and ensure no trips are missed.
  • Daily Activity Sheet
    View actual service activity with missed routes automatically accounted for.
  • Ridership Report
    Access detailed ridership data by route and day of the month.
  • Monthly Service Reconciliation Report
    Compare planned versus actual revenue hours and quickly identify discrepancies.

With these insights, transit agencies can better understand rider behavior, evaluate stop performance, and make more informed service decisions.

The platform also supports flexible data tracking, allowing manual inputs for special events and integration with demand response scheduling systems for a more complete operational view.
