Abstract
We, East Japan Railway Company, have begun to utilize the collected data for improving our transportation services and supplying good service for passengers. This time, we will introduce our various initiatives that utilize data on the number of passengers. (1) We have developed "Congestion Visualization System" that visualizes the congestion of running trains by using the weight data of the running train, calculating the number of passengers. (2) We have developed "Timetable Revision Effect Analysis Tool" that quantitatively evaluates the effects of the schedule revision by comparing data before and after timetable revision. (3) We decided to formulate new index “Live-Score”. Live-SCORE is calculated by focusing on delay time and congestion of trains running on disrupted line, multiplies the two, and takes the sum, can calculate the same index as SCORE in a timely manner.
