Publications
These are our publications since the Lab was established in 2019 (earlier publications of the PI of the Lab Dr Filip Biljecki are available here). We strive to publish papers open access whenever possible. The PDFs available here are either published as gold or green open access (usually postprints). For the authoritative publication please visit the publisher’s website linked through the DOI of the article. For code and data check our data+code page or follow the links noted in the publications. We have also a GitHub page.
Public transit agencies have amassed substantial data through on-board and off-board sensors over the years. While data collection was the primary focus, there is now a shift towards deriving actionable insights from this wealth of information. As data-driven decision making becomes increasingly vital, there is a growing need for effective ways to visualize and convey complex insights to decision makers. This study addresses this need by introducing G2Viz, a visualizer for public transit operations. The development process of G2Viz spans requirement gathering, planning, and design, encompassing software architecture, data models, user interfaces, and system components. Rigorous implementation and testing ensure the tool’s functionality and effectiveness. G2Viz, designed to dynamically visualize public transit operations using General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) data, is a web application accessible globally via any web browser. Its open-source nature, robustness, and versatility facilitate communication among transit agencies, users, researchers, and city authorities. G2Viz empowers transit planners to make well-informed decisions about public transportation. (Access G2Viz at https://g2viz.citycontext.info).
