I saw this interesting bit in a Edmonton Insight Community survey:
"Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) is conducting a customer research exercise that requires customers to use their mobile device to complete a series of tasks and questions related to the customer experience while using transit. ETS is looking to recruit 25 individuals to complete the exercise and is asking members of the Insight Community to consider participating if you meet the following criteria:
• Currently use Edmonton Public Transit Bus or LRT and/or will use transit in the month of May 2021
• Have access to a mobile device that can connect to a data network capable of loading webpages
• Loading an application (app) on your phone
• Able to complete activities as you complete your transit trip.
The exercise will be completed on your own time and does not require in-person interaction beyond the use of public transit. Financial compensation of $75 will be offered to participants. The exercise will be completed in partnership with a third party (Pivotal Research Inc.) and your contact information will be shared with Pivotal Research Inc. to facilitate contact with participants."
I wonder what they're going to be testing. I imagine it's not related to the SmartFare pilot, since credit card/phone tapping wasn't planned for until a later phase of the project.
