Subject: [TMIP-L] Webinar on SmartPhones and Travel Behavior
Dear TMIP-L Subscribers:
This is an announcement for the upcoming "Webinar On SmartPhones And Travel Behavior" which will be held on April 19th from 2:30-4:30pm EST
The webinar will consist of THREE 30-minute presentations with a 30-minute discussion period following the conclusion of the presentations. The session will be moderated by:
Guy Rousseau, Atlanta Regional Commission, and Chair of ABJ40 Travel Survey Methods
Elaine Murakami, FHWA Office of Planning, Co-Chair of the ABJ40 New Technology Subcommittee
---DESCRIPTION---
The rapid assimilation of smartphones with built-in GPS and accelerometers has presented an opportunity for major changes in conducting travel surveys. GPS or combinations with other location-based technologies such as Wi-Fi, cell tower triangulation, and Bluetooth offer opportunities to experiment with approaches to collect travel and activity behavior over longer periods of time, to combine these data with attitudinal or stated preference surveys, and to use measured behavior as a feedback mechanism for influencing behavior. Some recent approaches have included passive data collection combined with prompted web-response, with inferred travel mode and trip purpose. Another approach has been to design an active data collection where respondents enter information for each trip or based on a “random moments” approach.
---PRESENTERS---
1. Sandra Rodriguez, PTV NuStats. Smartphone app for the Oregon Travel And Activity Survey (OTAS)
2. Joan Walker, UC Berkeley. The Quantified Traveler. Using personal travel data to promote sustainable transport behavior.
3. Cy Smith, CEO and Founder, AirSage. Location Intelligence from Cellular Signaling Data Powering Transportation Planning
