This is a photo of a local bus stop in Singapore. Information that is visible in this photo includes the bus services that are serving the area, the frequency of bus services, traffic along the road and the number of commuters at the bus stop. In additional to these, valuable invisible information could be extracted from the visible information here. For example, commuters could track the actual arrival times of bus services through mobile applications to better plan their journeys. The arrival times of bus services could also be used to help monitor the service standards of bus services by comparing them to the provided information on frequency of bus services. Information on traffic congestion along the road could also help in the planning of deployment of bus services such that headways between buses could be more regular to better serve commuters and to prevent issues such as bus bunching.
