"Explore gives us a quick glimpse of relevant data. It's easy to look at Explore and get the information needed. And that saves us time. It took us two to three days of making maps for our Title VI report. With Explore, it's an hour of clicking around and exporting …

“Remix allows us to pull in data in one spot and we can put it all together at one time, while we’re designing.”

“In Remix, it was very easy to show them around. When we were done talking about Route 100, we could look at Route 300, and everyone could quickly see where things go.”

“Being a small agency, we all do everything. Remix has really helped us be the most efficient we can with the equipment we have.”

“Everything from long-range, 20-year long-range planning all the way down to operator scheduling, runcutting, bidding, bid administration, and every step in between. We do long-range planning, we do short-range planning, we do annual budget developments, we do both short-range and long-range service planning and changes, route expansions and improvements, project …

“We could pull Remix up on the screen in every meeting and say, ‘Okay, I’d like to see the route go down this street,’ and we could see roughly how much that would cost us in real time.”

“When it came time to finalize the plan, getting buy-in was easier because they actually understood it.”

"I’ve been using Remix a lot to flesh out a lot of ideas that I have, both in terms of potential and new bus routes and for making modifications to existing routes. It’s a really great way to put lines and stops down on a map and try to gauge …

“To draw a route in a more conventional GIS environment takes maybe about an hour. In Remix, you can draw a route in less than a minute.”

"There is nothing else like Remix in the marketplace. It’s so many tools in one resourceful package, useful and intuitive for experts and newbies alike."

“There are a lot of ways to skin a cat. We would draw it out, where we thought the proposed termini were, along with the proposed route, and that quickly gives us an estimate of not only the service hours and miles for each of those scenarios, roughly how many …

“Imagine being able to visually demonstrate how the change of bus routes would affect population coverage and at the same time show the financial cost – all at the click of a mouse. With Remix, people see trade-offs between planning decisions in seconds, in a way that is easy to …

“We never had drivers do multiple routes with the same bus before. This would have been difficult to do by hand since we never had such complex routes, on top of adding peak service hours. And now we’re saving a whole lot of money because of it.”

"Before having Explore, not everyone in our organization could use the GIS tools that we had to make informed decisions based on facts. That meant that our analysts had to be at meetings to pull up the data. Now with Explore, anyone at Västtrafik can easily access the data and …

"With Remix, we don’t risk making the wrong decisions based on gut feeling. We can now make more real-time, data-driven decisions that positively impact our communities."
