  3. Agenda – Day 2 • Review of material • Q & A • Tests

  4. Autostreeter

  5. Autostreeter Autostreeter is a program used to create ‘overlays’ or ‘layers’ of your map. Each layer represents an image of your map. This may be the entire map or subsets of it, such as streets of a specific speed. In this sample overlay; All black lines represent streets (segments) with speeds set 1-60. All red lines represent ‘no travel’ segments or segments with speeds set to – 0 -

  6. Autostreeter • Autostreet layers are available in Edulog, Maris, Elplot and GeBndplan. • Autostreet layers are just a picture (of your map) taken at a point of time. • After any geocode is added, moved or deleted, autostreeter layers must be updated (extract and build) to be able to view the changes.

  7. Autostreeter Layers display on top of one another in the order they were created - the last layer created is displayed on top of (over) the layers preceding it. Practice Removing A few layers Select the last layer entry then click the Remove button. Continue pressing it to remove more layers.

  8. To create the layers in a preferred order…. Autostreeter To begin, Click Add Enter Speeds Type “RailRoads” Beside Name Select Type Street

  9. Autostreeter • Continue entering the rest of the layers. • Refer to your handout (TRG-NT 6) for layer names, types and speeds.

  10. Autostreeter create the rest of our layers in this order: • Layer NameTypeSpeed Segment Level • All Segments All Segments All Segments • All Streets Street All Streets • County Line Street 98 - 98 • Hazard Segment Hazard • No Travel Segment Direction > No Travel • One Way Segment Direction > One Way • Private Road Street 9 - 9 • Rivers Street 97 – 97 • RailRoads Street 99 – 99 • Bridges Street Feature Class > BRG • Military Base Street 96 – 96 • Apartments Street Feature Class > APT • Mobile Home Parks Street Feature Class > MHP • School Drive Street Feature Class > SCH

  11. Autostreeter Typically, when finished adding the desired layers, select Extract and Build. BTW: In EMU you can create an AUTOSTREETER batch that does the same as Extract and Build! So, in our example choose…. Extract and Build

  12. Autostreeter We’re done! Click OK and then click Exit

  13. Returning to Edulog or Maris Autostreeter When you re-enter Edulog or maris, you will see this confirmation Message that lets you know that Autostreeter information has Changed. Select Yes at the prompt

  14. Displaying Autostreeter Layers Edulog.nt Tools > Load Autostreet Layers • Displays the control window for our layers • Once these layers are checked on, they come up automatically every time you enter Maris Maris Tools > Load Autostreet Layers • Notice “labels” and collision detection!

  15. Common Autostreeter mistakes • You created a layer but it doesn’t show up. • Another layer is covering it up (reorder your layers) • The layer color is the same as another layer’s. • The layer hasn’t been ‘checked on’ to display. • Wrong speeds where entered or don’t match the segments in question. • You’ve made geocode changes but the layer looks the same as before the changes. • Extract and build in autostreeter. • You selected ‘no’ to transferring the autostreeter data when entering maris or edulognt.

  16. Schools

  17. Schools • Schools are a major component of the transportation system in Edulog. The school codes are attached to student records as well as transportation records. Each school has bell times that are associated with all your transportation data.

  18. Adding a New School • Before you start entering your new data in Edulog.nt, you will need to go into MARIS and draw the school segment in. Make sure you make a note of the node number where the school is located, you will need this in then next step.

  19. Adding a New School • Schools/ Tabular • Key in School code then click ‘New’.

  20. Adding a New School • Fill in School Name. • Location – in this field you key in ‘#node number’ then press your tab key to locate the school. • We will use ITRE Elementary School at #6863

  21. Grades & Programs • Grade List - This field displays a list of grades for this particular school. • Program List – This field displays a list of eligible programs for this particular school. Example: ER (early release), SN (special needs), MID (mid-day)

  22. To add Grades & Programs • Grades and Programs can be added by clicking on the ‘Grade/Prog’ button and following the prompts.

  23. Bell Times • All grades and programs must have bell times. • Bell Times specify transportation time per grade, program and or frequency. • It is important that the regular bell time and program bell times for a single school are not identical.

  24. Bell Times • On the Bell Times window there are three columns that must be filled in. • Bell Times – this is the EXACT time the bell rings at the school for students to be in class or to be dismissed from class. • Bus Early – this time designates the earliest time a bus could arrive at the school in the AM (if they need to come in and drop off a load in order to go back out to pick up a second load). In the PM this time designates the earliest time a bus can leave the school. • Bus Late – this time designates the latest time a bus can arrive in the AM, to drop off students so they will be on time for school; this is the arrival time at school showing on your bus runs **This time CAN NOT be after the Bell Time * Bus Late does not mean the bus is late for school* In the PM this time designates the latest time a bus can leave the school to start a PM run. North Carolina does not normally use the Depart column; this column is used in Route Optimization

  25. Bell Times • To enter bell times, highlight all grades that share the same bell time, click the ‘Edit’ button and enter them all at once. • Bell times can be different for different days of the week ~ The ‘Days’ button allows you to enter different day patterns to be specified. • BE CAREFUL with the day patterns – contact your project leader if there are any questions about different days of the week

  26. Bell Times • After a school is added or relocated you should run these utilities from EMU. • POSTRELOCATESCHOOL • DUMPALL – Updates Report data

  27. Shift Times • Shift Times is used once the bell times have been set and need to be adjusted. • Resetbelltransclient is a program you can use if you only need to change a bell time for a particular program or grade. Before using Shift Times make sure you have a backup of your data!

  28. Shift Times • Here we have taken the old times – 8:00, 7:00, 7:50 and will be changing them to 7:45, 7:15 and 7:35. • There are 3 options on how you want the bell times reflected in your current data. • ‘Change time at stop only for runs outside new windows’. This option changes runs that are outside the new bell times. • ‘Do not change time at stop for run’. This option will not change any current run times. It is important to note if you choose this option it will cause an informational error in the diagnose program. • ‘Change time at stop for all runs based on new windows’. This option will change all stop times regardless of the previous bell windows. This is normally the option you would choose.

  29. ResetBellTransClient • ResetBellTransClient is a very powerful program that can affect a significant amount of your transportation data. Please contact your project leader to get assistance before running ResetBellTransClient. • ResetBellTransClient is used if you have multiple times at a school due to programs. If you need to change the bell times for a specific grade in a particular program for example, you would use ResetBellTransClient. • ResetBellTransClient clears out the existing bell times so you can re-enter the correct ones at the School menu.

  30. ResetBellTransClient • Make sure you exit out of all Edulog programs. • The batch file you will need is located in the Elt\Exe\Client folder. • Make sure there is a resetbelltransclient.bat and a resetbelltransclient.exe file in place (you will open the bat file).

  31. ResetBellTransClient • Choose the School, Program, Frequency and Grade that you need to change.

  32. ResetBellTransClient • Replace the existing times to 12:00 AM, then click on ‘Add’. Do this for each School/Program/ Frequency and Grade you need to change. • ‘Confirm’.

  33. ResetBellTransClient • Go into Edulog.NT to Schools ~ Tabular and key in the school you are working with; you will see that the bell times are cleared out and you can re-enter the correct bell times.

  34. Rename a School • Using the Schools/Tabular function; key in the school code that you need to change. • Click on the Rename button; you will be asked if you have a current backup – respond appropriately. • **If you do not have a current backup, STOP and make one!**

  35. Rename a School • Key in the new school code and confirm. • This will change any records associated with the school code. • Stop Records • Run Records • Student Records

  36. School Relocation • Sometimes, the school bus lot driveway will change • To relocate it, first, make the change in Maris taking note of the new node number, run the Geocode maintenance • Using Schools/Tabular Click on the Relocate tab

  37. School Relocation • Beside ‘New Location’ enter in the new node number of the school. The #XXXX format must be used • You must run POSTRELOCATESCHOOL in EMU. You may need to create this batch

  38. School Deletion • Before a school can be deleted, there must not be any student, stop, run or route data associated with it. • Students school codes can be changed via the upstu process. If you need to change student school codes before the data can be gathered from the NCWISE Data Manager, you can run the rollover process.

  39. School Deletion • Student deassignment from stops; stop deassignment from runs and run deassignment from routes can be done easily using EMU. • DEASGN (use this to deassign students from stops) • DEASSIGNSTOPSONRUNS • DEASSIGNRUNSONROUTES • DELETERUNSNOSTOPS • DELETEROUTES • KILSTP (this deletes stops not on runs, and with no students assigned)

  40. School Deletion • You will need to have worklists made for: • Students in the school you want to deassign. *note: if students school codes are changed they will not have stops assigned to them anymore so you could skip this step • Runs that are assigned to the school you are deleting • Stops that will need to be deleted

  41. School Deletion • DEASGN – Students from Stops • In EMU create the batch: DEASGN

  42. School Deletion • Create the batch DEASSIGNSTOPSONRUNS *you can ‘includecheckpoints’ here and not have to run a separate batch to do this.

  43. School Deletion • Create the batch: DELETERUNSNOSTOP

  44. School Deletion • If necessary you can delete routes using the DELETEROUTES batch. There is no input needed to create this batch; however if runs are assigned to routes, the route will not be deleted

  45. School Deletion • Create the batch: KILSTP

  46. School Deletion • Almost Done! At the Schools/ Tabular menu: DELETE

  47. School Deletion • Once the school has been deleted, you must run DELINVALIDSCHSRV in EMU. You may need to create this batch. There is no input needed to create this batch.

  48. Programs • Program types are associated with schools, allowing students to arrive or be dismissed from school at a different time other than the regular school bell time. These are commonly used with Special Education students. • Since the school bell time and the program bell time are different – special care needs to be taken when creating stops or runs for the program. This is where careful attention to the stop services is important. • We ask that you call your Project Leader to discuss the process first; changes will be made to your data that will require some extra work

  49. Programs • Programs are created in Schools/Tabular • Most stops generally only have 2 services assigned to them; 1 for AM and 1 for PM. These two services will have the schools regular bell times. • When you need to create a stop for a program you will need to make sure an appropriate service has been made before assigning it to a run.

  50. Programs • You will need to define bell times for each program • Once created, you will have the option to assign students to stops created specifically for a program
