Mobility data and digital tools

In collaboration with STIB-MIVB

Context

The digitalization of the economy and the rise in power of mobile terminals such as GPS, smartphones and tablets have favored the emergence of geolocation and the production of digital traces. The collection and analysis of mobility data is akin to a gold rush where each actor hopes to take advantage of this wealth of information on our movements to better manage urban mobility. However, controlling this data is a complex issue since their volume is immense and their correct interpretation is crucial. Their representativeness and reliability are not systematically proven.

More than ever, public authorities and operators of public transport or mobility services must take advantage of these new approaches to plan, manage and evaluate their transport policies or projects.

Training objectives

1

Present the different types of mobility data, their strengths and weaknesses and how to collect them.

2

Develop a critical view of their contribution in terms of planning, management and evaluation of transport projects.

3

Structuring how to take advantage of this data to support mobility policies.

4

Learn to master the processing of this data to have indicators and dashboards.

5

Take note of the digital tools available to facilitate and automate their analysis.

6

Objectifying the balance of power between public authorities and digital giants (GAFAM)
