Comparing Check Modes

The Compare Check Modes feature is useful if you use both manually checked and automated APC data. It allows you to compare ridership check data gathered for the same trip through different methods such as APCs or survey sheets.

You can compare check data gathered through different methods.

  1. On the Ridership Analysis screen, click Ridership > Compare Check Modes.
    The Compare Check Modes dialog box appears.
