Our work on passengers' alignments is out. Check out!
🚍 Estimating where passengers get off in transit systems is challenging. Using Smart Card Data and GPS, Aslam et al. developed a framework to accurately pinpoint alighting locations, offering insights to optimise public transport. 🚀 OpenAccess: bit.ly/3SOYFxk

Did all our 2023 prompting make us more creative? Or lazier? By analyzing prompts from 2 Gen AI platforms, it turns out it can be both - platform design is key. New preprint: The role of interface design on prompt-mediated creativity in Generative AI arxiv.org/abs/2312.00233

New pre-print alert 📝Using mobile data apps, we look at how people in London change their working patterns (among other things) and how the traditional Monday to Friday, 9-5 work pattern has become a work-from-home and fewer commute trips.

We built zone travel diaries using aggregated mobile data app counts at Hexagon level (locomizer.com) + POI (OSM). Despite all the associated bias, mobile app data is known for indicating where people are moving. Our Travel diaries look something like this:

In Quant (quant.casa.ucl.ac.uk/quant2/…), we have 3 modes (road, bus, rail - 4 if we add walk). What if we add a 5th mode: work from home to compete with the rest. How the OD spatial distribution would change? Interesting. @jmichaelbatty
