Providers of public transport vehicle journeys, for example local transport services or train operating companies, are called operators. The network object operator is the starting point for analyses of the public transport supply from operator point of view. It is therefore used within the network for grouping lines and vehicle journeys to jointly evaluate units. An example is the distribution of the revenues to the various operators of a transportation agency. This is often based on service kilometers or seat kilometers. If you have assigned operators to the vehicle journeys in your model, you can evaluate these and many other indicators (Operator model PuT).
Operators can either be assigned to a whole line (one then talks about a standard operator) or individual vehicle journeys.

Note: Please note that changing the standard operator of a line subsequently, does not overwrite the operators of existing vehicle journeys. |
