<p>A method for determining a status of transit media where the method includes imaging transit media with an optical imager to create a digital image of one or more surfaces of transit media. The method includes generating optical data from the digital image. Optical data includes information indicative of a transit product or usage. The method includes obtaining magnetic data from a magnetic strip of transit media with a magnetic media reader. Magnetic data includes information indicative of the transit product or usage encoded within the magnetic strip. Some embodiments include comparing, using a processing unit, optical data with magnetic data to determine whether optical data corresponds with magnetic data. The method can involve implementing one or more business rules from a database of business rules. This implementation can be based on the comparison. The method includes determining a status of transit media based on the implementation of business rules.</p> |
