For travel in the US,\u00a0apps and websites\u00a0abound with crowd-sourced information, historical averages, or good old-fashioned guesstimates, but none provide the real-time data that would lend a measure of reassurance to a panicked <a href=\"https:\/\/vookbook.com\/blog\/category\/tips\/\">would-be passenger<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>That\u2019s because, according to a recent report in the\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/travel\/story\/2019-08-30\/apps-to-estimate-the-wait-at-tsa-checkpoints\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Times<\/a><\/em>, apps can\u2019t collect that data without permission from the airports. But the Transportation Security Administration has another tool at its disposal, and if it\u2019s implemented nationwide, it could be a game-changer.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in February 2018 and used in busy airports from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/New_York_City\">New York<\/a> to New Zealand, Veovo is a predictive platform that provides details on checkpoint queues via a service called Passenger Predictability Solutions (or BlipTrack, as it was previously known), which\u00a0mines data\u00a0from sources like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth sensors, and 3D cameras to determine accurate wait times. \u201cAirports need to innovate aggressively to cope with increased passenger numbers,\u201d Veovo general manager Chris Warrington said in a press release announcing the launch. \u201cBig data innovations&#8230;can help them optimise their entire operation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, said data is only accessible to passengers at the airports themselves at this point\u2014which doesn\u2019t do much to help with advanced planning. But app creators are eager to get their hands on the real-time numbers and pass it on to the public. \u201cIt\u2019ll be in everybody\u2019s best interest if TSA at airports across the country use this technology to collect the data and share it with us and other companies so we can better serve our users,\u201d Bayram Annakov, CEO of the travel-oriented\u00a0App in the Air, told the\u00a0<em>L.A.
