The paper presents the original method of time description for urban bus routes. The proposed method uses the GPS data from a GPS receiver placed in a bus. The GPS data are recorded with a constant frequency. The analyzed bus route is divided into two types of sections called the stopping and the running sections. The stopping sections are bus stops. The running sections are parts of the bus route between two neighboring stopping sections. Subsets of the GPS data are assigned to the appropriate sections. Based on the GPS data, bus displacement, bus speed, and the state vector for the individual GPS points are determined. Aggregation of the data within the running and the stopping sections creates travel time description. Analysis of travel time description allows suitability assessment of the considered bus route for operation with electric buses. Experimental results are provided.
