WIOMAX has participated as a transportation action cluster in the Global City Teams Challenge (GCTC) program. GCTC is a collaborative platform organized by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the development of smart cities and connected communities. The
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
We perform a systematic analysis on the large-scale taxi trip data to uncover urban mobility and city dynamics in multimodal urban transportation environments. As a case study, we use the taxi origin-destination trip data and some additional data sources in
During January 11-14, we presented our work on understanding and improving urban mobility at the Transportation Research Board (TRB) 94th Annual Meeting in the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington, DC. An empirical study of combining participatory and physical sensing to
For solving problems in multimodal traffic and transportation networks and achieving sustainable urban mobility, we have worked on creating Smart and Scalable Urban Signal Networks and multimodal extensions, designing Intelligent Route Choice Framework, and utilizing Big Data and Urban Informatics.
