Big Data In-Depth Focus
  • Using big data to improve Cape Town’s transport
    Big data has many applications worldwide, so harnessing it to improve transport operations in South African cities – and other cities on the continent – hasn’t been lost on transport authorities, ITS engineers and data scientists, explains Dr Paul Vorster, CEO of the Intelligent Transport Society South Africa.
  • Hacking Copenhagen with the ‘bicycle-as-a-sensor’
    Very few solutions currently exist that measure, account for and integrate cycling mobility into a city’s ITS ecosystem, yet cities cannot afford to lose bicycles as methods of urban transportation. Niccolò Panozzo, Development Officer at the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF), says they are too efficient, sustainable and economically beneficial to individuals and societies, and explains how the ‘Hacking Copenhagen Demonstration’ project, led by the ECF, will show the full potential of connected cycling.
  • Transport solutions require big data
    Following Keolis’ partnership with IVADO, Arnaud Julien, Innovation and Digital Director at Keolis, discusses how the business is using big data to drive innovation and offer passengers a more tailored transport network for tomorrow.
