Integrated information application on mobile devices for air passengers

Preparation requires the most time in case of air travel among all transport modes. In the travel chain, plenty of information management processes are related to the movement phases between the house and the aircraft. An integrated application aids the planning, the execution and the decision-making during travelling. A completely integrated application does not exist yet, although the demand for it has been also confirmed (among others) by our international passenger survey. In order to develop the application, transport informatics analysis and modelling has been performed, which establishes the integration. Model of the integrated information system has been developed and the functional model of the passenger-oriented application was inserted into. To prove the applicability of the model, a system design has been prepared and for demonstration purposes of the transfer aiding function, a mock-up application has been developed. The results serve as a good base for a possible development of such application.
