Short
Description
(up to
150 words)
Activity- based modelling has the capability to exploit big data source generated by smart cities to create a digital twin of urban environments to test Mobility as a Service schemes. MND data have been used to create activities for an Agent Based Model. AI is used to automatically detect purpose and mode of transport in multimodal round trips, obtained by anonymized and aggregated MND trip-chains dataset. Data fusion techniques and SQL queries were also used to consider land use and facilities in the urban area of interest.
Complete Description Activity- based modelling has the capability to exploit big data source generated by smart cities to create a digital twin of urban environments to test Mobility as a Service schemes. Given the rise of location- based data and Mobile phone Network Data (MND) for transport modelling purpose, Agent based modelling has become a viable tool to explore a sustainable introduction of mobility services, exploring the integration with mass transit. AI is used in detecting purpose and mode of transport in multimodal round trips and assign purpose and mode of transport to trip- chains dataset coming from MND. The methodology has been developed for the Innovate UK funded Mobility on Demand Laboratory Environment (MODLE) project and will undergo a validation process during the Demand Modelling and Assessment through a Network Demonstrator (DeMAND) project for the Department for Transport (UK)
