The annual update for the Cisco Portfolio Explorer for Transportation has just been released, featuring five industry themes and sixteen associated use cases. Covering roadways and intersections, rail, airports, and ports, the tool now provides an extensive look into how Cisco is driving a more connected and secure transportation environment.
The railway industry is increasingly embracing new systems and technologies to enhance operational efficiency, safety, and connectivity. As operators move on from their legacy systems, there is an ever-increasing number of connections and complexity to deal with from a security standpoint.
Sustainable transportation plays a key role in the transition to a low-carbon economy. As transportation organizations analyze their impact, they are setting GHG emissions reduction goals and accelerating technologies that support electrification, autonomous vehicles, and mobility as a service. Cisco's transportation solutions help support their sustainability journey.
In the most recent episode of the Coffee and Conversations podcast, we discuss the rail and mass transit industry and innovations and technology that are shaping its’ future. We review the latest trends that are driving sustainability, efficiency, and passenger-centricity in the industry.
As ridership inches toward pre-pandemic levels, rail operators need to continue evolving their operations while searching for new ways to attract passengers and adapt to new transit behaviors. Ensuring seamless, secure connectivity, from the station to the train, is foundational for creating a modern passenger experience and developing new revenue services.
