    Dashboard: Speeding by Goods Vehicles on British Roads

    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…

    Technical blog: Hosting Vector Tiles Securely

    Mobility data is often processed in vector format, whether as road networks, points, or polygons. Vector data can store multiple attribute values (or columns) and is represented in geometries stored in formats such as .geojson, .shp, or .gpkg. This data is commonly used for visualization in web maps or dashboards, helping users better understand its…

    Enhancing mobility for older adults: agent-based modelling for Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand services in Winnipeg, Canada

    As the global population ages, addressing the transportation needs of older adults has become an urgent priority. In Canada, the demographic shift is particularly pronounced, with projections indicating that by 2030, approximately 22.8% of the population will be 65 or older. This trend challenges existing transportation infrastructure, and necessitates innovative solutions that consider the diverse…
