This week we have released our HASP databoard tracking speeding behaviour by goods vehicles in 13 British cities. You can view the dashboard at speeding.hasp.ac.uk.

The dashboard comes through a collaboration with Compass IoT, who made anonymised GPS vehicle trajectories available to us for research purposes. We developed a measure of the proportion of vehicles travelling at above the speed limit for every road link in the 13 cities. The data crunching process, and some initial analysis, is documented in our first paper here (under review). This piece of work was led by Long Chen.

The dashboard itself was created by Hilman Prakoso, with some of the methods outlined in previous blog posts. It is quite a feat to visualise this much data in a single dashboard.

We hope the dashboard provides some useful data for people interested in exploring and comparing speeding in their neighbourhoods. The value of focusing on goods vehicles is that we exclude ‘boy racer’ type behaviours, and really focus on the urban environmental and design factors that result in speeding.
