Thanks for joining us at the WiFi on Trains Conference

Lately, perceptions around the value of time have shifted, especially when it comes to travel time. This change has been propelled by advances in technology, and in particular information and communication technologies (ICT).

Internet access on-board can truly have a big impact on encouraging passengers to travel via rail. Widely speaking, there are many reasons a passenger may choose to travel by train.

Jeremy Haskey, Chief Architect at Nomad Digital, shares his insight into rail fleet connectivity technologies and the benefits they can bring to both operators, and the passenger experience.

Data is paramount in facilitating an excellent passenger experience. As time progresses, the role to be played by smart data is becoming increasingly clear.

Nomad launches its Road Connectivity product, bringing its renowned expertise in the Rail industry to buses, road freight and mining vehicles.

Connectivity is essential in providing an excellent passenger experience. At Nomad Digital we work with operators to ensure that they have the best technology available to enhance the passenger experience.

On 25-26 August 2020, Nomad Digital attended SmartTransit’s first virtual event. The transit focused on agencies across Northern America, who were and still are facing challenges within the rail industry.

Thermal cameras can be an effective tool used worldwide to reignite the public transport industry, whilst fighting the spread of Covid-19. Measurements happen in real-time, no physical contact is needed, and data can be obtained from behind the scenes.

WiFi has very quickly become an integral part of people’s daily lives. We’ve come to expect it at home, work and in public areas. We are used to being and staying connected and will rely on WiFi to do everyday tasks such as checking emails, finding directions and posting on social media

Whilst temporally stopping life as we know it, causing devastation on a personal and economic level, COVID19 has exposed a positive in the high value that good digital connectivity brings to our lives.
