About this app

The management of commercial private taxi/fleet vehicle companies (referred to as TNC) that are not part of the airport and local government controlled taxi systems is a critical need for airports worldwide. CurbPING provides the means to track these vehicles every time that they enter the airport premises for picking up or dropping off a paying passenger.

We utilize state-of-the-art technologies that incorporate virtual geo-fencing detection and validation with our application designed to run on smart cellular phones with GPS and Internet access. When a vehicle enters a geo-fence boundary, the system automatically records the entry of the vehicle and processes the drop off or pickup transaction based upon airport and local government policies. The vehicle is tracked in real-time while on the airport property. This provides the means to enforce the airport policies by pointing out the vehicles that are violating the airport policies regarding private taxi services.

CurbPING provides (but not limited to) the following features:

• Capturing number of trips
• Capturing commercial vehicle trip fees (automated invoicing)
• Dashboard displays all vehicles on property in real-time with drill-down detailed information pop-ups
• Easy to customize to meet the needs and requirements of each airport agreement
• Virtual, accurate geo-fence – physical infrastructure is unnecessary
• Supports sub-zones within overall geo-fence to identify individual terminals/other areas
• Integration with existing accounting systems is fully customizable
• Real-time dashboard can be used for curbside enforcement
• Any airport can be utilizing this system in very little time
• The web site administration tools provide all of the features such as reporting and tracking dashboards
• Unique software algorithms that validate that a vehicle is truly within the geo-fence and not just driving by
• Can be used worldwide
• Can be implemented by local government for areas such as popular entertainment zones

Why do airports need a solution?

• Every month TNCs are entering into permits or agreements with airports across the U.S.
• TNCs are generating revenue at airports using airport passengers
• TNCs design reports and statistics that work for them, not the airports!
• Airports need, and have a right, to know of all the commercial vehicles on their property
• Airports need real-time information to effectively enforce regulations

Key Unique Benefits of CurbPING

• Can be used for all commercial vehicle operators at your airport
• Does not rely on self-reported data from companies doing business on your curbside
• Real-time Enforcement Tool ensures airports can control access to your customers
• Gain back control and generate new revenue for your airport by using this tool

NOTE: This application is intended for use by authorized individuals working for the private taxi (TNC) companies involved. It is not intended for use by anyone else.
