What can Bike-Sharing System Data Tell Us about Operations: Case Study of Corral Service
Operations are important for maintaining daily functions of a bikeshare system (BSS). Here, we analyze and try to measure the efficiency of operating activities of bikeshare through data analytics. We take the valet and corral service as an example of
Using Data Visualization and Analytics for Understanding O-D Flows in Bike-Sharing System
In this blog, we use data visualization and data analytics to provide some basic understandings of the origin-destination (O-D) flows between stations in a bike-sharing system. Part of this blog is adapted from the following research paper: “Examining travel patterns and
What can Bike-Sharing System Data Tell Us about Mobility and Role of Bike Infrastructure
In urban mobility, travel or trip speed is important. For each bicycle trip, its bikeshare use time provides an upper bound of travel time. Particularly, for the utilitarian O-D trips, the bikeshare use time approaches the travel time if there
Open Location Platform Unlocks the Values of Integrated Smart Technologies with IoT and Big Data for Smart Cities
A platform specializing in geospatial data is often referred to as a Location Platform (LP) or Location Based Services (LBS) platform. Different from Geographic Information System (GIS), which is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present
Pedestrians and Bicyclists Call for the Innovations of Smart Transportation Technology for a Better Safety and Mobility
Although bicycling and walking were not used extensively as travel modes before, they have been showing a fast increasing trend of being adopted and used for recent years according to transportation data. More people would like to bike or walk to
