2 Development of Transactional Data Specifications for Demand-Responsive Transportation The result: DRT services almost always operate in isolation from others in their proximity. This precludes the possibility of cross-system interactions that could reduce cost per passenger served and improve service quality.

Summary 3 allow software systems from various service providers to exchange specification-compliant trip-related data. What Other Experiences with Data Specifications Teach Us Core principles for designing the transactional data specification -- simplicity, sufficiency, flexibility, adaptability, compatibility, and technical appropriateness -- were identified through research on data specifications for software system interactions in transportation and other industries, including directly relevant DRT situations.
