Human mobility: Models and applications
Hugo Barbosa,Marc Barthelemy,Gourab Ghoshal,Charlotte R James,Maxime Lenormand,Thomas Louail,Ronaldo Menezes,José J. Ramasco,Filippo Simini,Marcello Tomasini +9 more
TL;DR: This survey reviews the approaches developed to reproduce various mobility patterns, with the main focus on recent developments, and organizes the subject by differentiating between individual and population mobility and also between short-range and long-range mobility.

Social Sensing: A New Approach to Understanding Our Socioeconomic Environments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the term social sensing for individual-level big geospatial data and the associat- tation of the data to understand the socioeconomic environments.

Development of origin–destination matrices using mobile phone call data
Md. Shahadat Iqbal,Charisma F. Choudhury,Charisma F. Choudhury,Charisma F. Choudhury,Pu Wang,Pu Wang,Marta C. González +6 more
TL;DR: This research proposes a methodology to develop OD matrices using mobile phone Call Detail Records (CDR) and limited traffic counts to determine the scaling factors that result best matches with the observed traffic counts.

A new insight into land use classification based on aggregated mobile phone data
TL;DR: An analysis of the land-use classification results shows that the detection rate decreases as the heterogeneity of land use increases, and increases as the density of cell phone towers increases.

Configuring participation: on how we involve people in design
TL;DR: It is argued that much HCI research leans towards configuring participation, and three questions are considered important for understanding how HCI configures participation; Who initiates, directs and benefits from user participation in design?

Understanding individual human mobility patterns
Marta C. González,A R Cesar Hidalgo,A R Cesar Hidalgo,Albert-László Barabási,Albert-László Barabási,Albert-László Barabási +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the trajectory of 100,000 anonymized mobile phone users whose position is tracked for a six-month period and find that the individual travel patterns collapse into a single spatial probability distribution, indicating that humans follow simple reproducible patterns.

Real-Time Urban Monitoring Using Cell Phones: A Case Study in Rome
TL;DR: A new real-time urban monitoring system that marks the unprecedented monitoring of a large urban area, which covered most of the city of Rome, in real time using a variety of sensing systems and will hopefully open the way to a new paradigm of understanding and optimizing urban dynamics.

Digital Footprinting: Uncovering Tourists with User-Generated Content
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider two types of digital traces from Rome, Italy: georeferenced photos made publicly available on the photo-sharing Web site Flickr and aggregate records of wireless network events generated by mobile phone users making calls and sending text messages on the Telecom Italia Mobile (TIM) system.

The geography of taste: analyzing cell-phone mobility and social events
TL;DR: It is shown that the origins of people attending an event are strongly correlated to the type of event, with implications in city management, since the knowledge of additive flows can be a critical information on which to take decisions about events management and congestion mitigation.
