Personal Shared Use Planning'Personal Shared Use Planning' provides a personalized connection to shared use mobility including vehicle shared use and arranging person trips. The shared use plan is calculated based on preferences and constraints supplied by the traveler and provided to the traveler for confirmation. Many equipment configurations are possible including systems that provide a basic trip plan to the traveler as well as more sophisticated systems that can provide transition by transition guidance to the traveler along a multi–modal route with transfers. Devices represented by this functional object include desktop computers at home, work, or at major trip generation sites, plus personal devices such as tablets and smart phones.False
