Abstract (en)

Method of collecting information as to the actual starting and finishing points of journeys taken with public transport, irrespective of changes in route and/or conveyance, at least the points of time and boarding at the start of the journey being registered on a fare document. In conjunction with boarding the conveyance it is examined whether predetermined transfer conditions for a previous journey registered on the fare document are met on boarding, and classifying the journey started on boarding as a new journey if on boarding the prevailing conditions do not meet said transfer conditions, or as a continued journey if the conditions on boarding meet said transfer conditions. For a continued journey, the starting point of the previous journey registered on the fare document is selected as the actual starting point of the journey, and for a new journey there is selected the place of boarding as the starting point for the journey started with the present boarding, and the place of boarding for the new journey is selected as the actual finishing point of the preceding journey. For a new journey in conjunction with boarding information as to the actual starting and finishing points of the preceding journey is registered and stored either in the conveyance or at the point of boarding. The information stored in the conveyances and at the points of embarkation is collected.
