The Control Center – The Route Network Under Control

The control center is the heart of the VICOS-LIO Automatic Vehicle Location and Control System (AVLC). This system ensures efficient operation for urban and regional transport operators with more than 50 vehicles (buses and/or trams).

The control computer software is open to a high level of parameterization, meaning that it is possible to satisfy the needs of operations of all sizes. All functions are operated via a consistent Windows interface. The workplaces of the dispatchers and system managers can be used as remote workplaces, located anywhere within the geographic region of the operation. This is an important consideration when the control center has to handle vehicles from varying authorities and operators (for example within a public transport corporation) or if the depot is decentralized.
