Urban Mobility Study using Taxi Traces

Authors

Abstract

In this work, we analyze taxi-GPS traces collected in Lisbon, Portugal. We perform an exploratory analysis to visualize the spatiotemporal variation of taxi services; explore the relationships between pick-up and drop-off locations; and analyze the behavior in downtime (between the previous drop-off and the following pick-up). We also carry out the analysis of predictability of taxi trips for the next pick-up area type given history of taxi flow in time and space.

Keywords
