Collection and analyses of crowd travel behaviour data by using smartphones

In 2010 the MOVE project started in the collection and analysis of crowd behaviour data. The two main goals of the project are first, the collection of data through the use of mobile phones. The second goal is to develop new technologies to process and mine the collected data for crowd behaviour analysis. The technology will allow to make advanced interpretations of historic and dynamic mobile crowd data coming from GSM/GPS and from different classes of users (vehicle, pedestrian, indoor/outdoor). Fusion will be made between data coming from different sources (smartphone, navigation device) and external map data. The interpretation will allow the mining of advanced features/geometry from the crowd data as well as the dynamic (travel) behavior of the population
