INFO-Web Context Properties

Context properties allows you to access the centrally defined and maintained property values. This section lists the various categories and sub-categories of INFO-Web properties and their descriptions. Note that some categories have several sub-categories while some properties are shown as categories on their own, for example, Filter Lines By StopId.

Note: Some of these properties apply to INFO-Web G2 only, for example, those that apply to the appearance of the interface. For INFO-Web G3, the interface is controlled for the most part in the markup file.

TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > DefaultOptions > NumberOfDaysAhead Sets the number of days ahead into future sign-up periods so that users can perform trip planning for dates that fall within future sign-up periods.

Line data from the current and future sign-up periods will be loaded. If a route is found only in a future sign-up period, a message will be displayed showing when it will become active in the Routes screen. Trips on dates that fall within a future sign-up period will only use lines that exist within that sign-up period.

If not selected, the full service name is used.

TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > DefaultOptions > UseNewFareTable

If selected, the GetDefaultOptions query uses the InfoFarePassengerType table for passenger types. If not selected, it uses the FarePassengerType table.

If using the CTM engine, this property must be selected. If using the CTM Server, the setting depends on the faring module used. This is not selected by default.

TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > TripPlanning > DefaultWalkingSpeed Walking speed set as the default. If set to 0.0, the walking times are not calculated. The default is 0 (kmh).
TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > TripPlanning > DisplayPassengerType If selected, the Passenger Type option is displayed in the Trip Planning page.
TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > TripPlanning > IgnoreEarlyLeewayMargin If set to a value greater than 0, the system defines the margin (in seconds) around the current system time. If the itinerary request time falls within that margin and the Early Leeway Time Parameter is set to 0, the system looks for solutions from the requested time without any early leeway being subtracted. Trips in the past are not included in the solution if the client is requesting for the Next trips. This is set to 0 by default.

The following options determine how itineraries are searched around the requested time:

  • Closest - Searches for the closest trip based on the existing parameters. This is the default.

TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > TripPlanning > MinDistanceForWalkingLegDirections Minimum distance threshold for displaying walking instructions for an individual walking leg, for example, distance from trip origin to first stop. This is set to 0 by default. The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 5000 meters.
TravelerInformation > FixedRoute > InfoWeb > TripPlanning > MaxDistanceToConsiderWalking Maximum distance to recommend for the user to walk. If the straight-line distance between the trip's origin and destination is less than this value, set the ConsiderWalking flag of the itinerary (in the ItineraryLookup response) to 1. The default is 0. The minimum is 0 and the maximum is 5000 meters.
