Urhub Announces “Next Generation 5-1-1” Suite Of Products To Improve User Experience

 
DENVER - July 10, 2014 - PRLog -- DENVER – urHub, a division of The Hub Companies, LLC, and the organization responsible for development of the Public Private Partnership with the Colorado Department of Transportation for the CDOT Mobile Smartphone application, introduced an expanded suite of products designed to enhance the usability of digital information interfaces.

The SmarTranz product suite for Transportation Agencies forms the basis of urHub’s “Next Generation 5-1-1” traveler information platform solution.  SmarTranz provides ITS teams and travelers alike with easy-to-use, travel-related information and tools.

SmarTranz is comprised of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) Software Products developed by urHub and the Revenue Product that enables The Hub Companies to provide Transportation Agencies with sustainable and cost-effective technology solutions.

ATIS Software Products

CloudLayerZ negates the need for expensive resources by ITS operations by employing cloud-based technology to manipulate map information.  Information “layers” – speeds, road conditions, etc. – are selectable and can be provided real-time.  This optimizes the user experience thereby delivering a more efficient and significantly less costly option for conveying map-based information.

CloudLayerZ is currently employed within the CDOT Mobile Application, which has more than 315,000 users.

SpeedZ is a compressed speed bar designed to provide an immediate impression of relative speeds on major and important stretches of highway.  Because handheld’s are relatively small and cannot display miles of road in a single view, SpeedZ compresses segmented data points to specified areas yielding a color-coded display on a Smartphone.

FeedZ is an integrated technology services feature.  All urHub platforms are built to integrate with a Transportation Agency’s legacy technologies and third party services.  This means that a Transportation Agencies’ ITS group need not change the way they operate because the urHub platform can ingest any sort of feed: 5-1-1, RSS, TMS, TMC/TOC data, cameras, VMS, newsfeeds, weather, sensor data, XML, iCal (ICS), CCTV, ATR, Twitter and other social media as well as custom feeds and all ITS information.

Revenue Product

The inline advertising product, RevenueZ, is a networked advertising management solution that provides for implementation, monitoring and tracking of ads on mobile platforms.

It features:

Detailed and customized analytics

Motion and video capabilities

Responsive design -- including sponsorship and banner advertising

As well as a dedicated sales and servicing team to ensure advertising is sold; content is appropriately managed and monitored and; revenue is collected

The Hub Companies is focused on bringing new and innovative technologies to the transportation sector.  It believes that use and adoption of its SmarTranz suite of products by Transportation Agencies will assist in optimizing ITS resources and allow these agencies to provide additional, easy-to-use information to the traveler.
