Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling Nonmotorized Travel Demand at Intersections in Calgary, Canada: Use of Traffic Counts and Geographic Information System Data
Maryam Tabeshian,Lina Kattan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the impact of land use development scenarios and transportation policies on bicycle and pedestrian demand is estimated on non-motorized trip volumes and design the related infrastructure adequately.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inferring and Modeling Migration Flows Using Mobile Phone Network Data
Soranan Hankaew,Santi Phithakkitnukoon,Merkebe Getachew Demissie,Lina Kattan,Zbigniew Smoreda,Carlo Ratti +5 more
TL;DR: This study makes use of a massive mobile phone network data to infer migration trips and their distribution and finds that the gravity and log-linear models with a direct distance used as its travel cost and district centroids used as the reference points perform best among the other alternative models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualizing public transit system operation with GTFS data: A case study of Calgary, Canada
Postsavee Prommaharaj,Santi Phithakkitnukoon,Merkebe Getachew Demissie,Lina Kattan,Carlo Ratti +4 more
TL;DR: A new public transit system operation visualization tool (called PubtraVis) with six visualization modules that reflect on different transit system operational characteristics; mobility, speed, flow, density, headway, and analysis is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Injury Risk in Collisions Involving Buses in Alberta, Canada
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the factors that contributed to injuries in collisions that involved at least one bus in the province of Alberta, Canada, and found that weather conditions were a significant contributing factor in all four types of collisions, although crashes in adverse weather conditions resulted in fewer injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Waiting time and headway modelling for urban transit systems – a critical review and proposed approach
TL;DR: A comprehensive approach to determine the mean waiting time of travellers is developed and may be utilised in transit studies to better model the transit use which subsequently results in better designs and more efficient operations.
