Heat at outdoor stops: passenger advice
A passenger advice message for the hottest hours.
What it does
Every morning in summer: the hottest hours today in your city, and a passenger advice message by xMap AI (shade, water, travel earlier), posted for the social media team.
In one sentence: Every day at 06:00, in Dubai, get the 1-day weather forecast, sort them by temp and keep the top 4, write a report with xMap AI, then send message to a channel in Slack and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Waiting at a hot stop is hard, especially for older riders. A short message helps them plan.
Who it is for
Public transport & transit. Transit agencies, bus and rail operators and mobility planners placing stops, running services around disruptions and reaching riders. Every use case for public transport
Best use cases
- A transit agency’s social team
- A city heat office
- A bus operator
What each run gives you
- A Slack post
The time it saves
Every day at 06:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 15 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 8 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
