Analysis of Pedestrian Travel with Static Bluetooth Sensors

摘要: Travel evaluation metrics have been historically biased toward motorized modes, which dominate land transportation choices and are partially responsible for numerous environmental health issues facing society today. Encouraging active travel solutions is seen as a means of improving the sustainability, health, cohesiveness community. Unfortunately, information about volume, trip origin destination, time, personal interactions difficult to obtain because lack sensor infrastructure unrestricted movement these modes. Therefore, often limited annual surveys model estimates that insufficient address increasing needs sustainable planning large-scale behavior studies. An automated, cost-effective approach acquiring pedestrian data desirable. The emergence Bluetooth sensors gathering time traffic analysis presents an opportunity use same technology analysis. How...
