Matriz OD Transporte Público offers a set of detailed data on the stages and trips made by public transportation, using the SUBE card in the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires. This resource includes both the raw data and the scripts necessary to process and link travel stages, in addition to imputing destinations, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of urban movement. This resource is essential for the development of public transportation policies, providing a database that reflects mobility patterns. The information, obtained anonymously, allows governments, NGOs, and other civil society actors to participate in debates about public transport planning, ensuring that decisions are based on representative and up-to-date data. Users can access matrix results, the SUBE transaction data set and processing procedures, promoting transparency and collaboration in public transport improvement.
Optimizing public transportation systems and understanding passenger movement can be complex. Public Transportation OD Matrix addresses this problem by providing a platform that simplifies OD analysis, benefiting transportation planners and decision makers.
OD Analysis: Matriz OD Transporte Público often includes tools for studying passenger movement within public transportation networks. Data Visualization: The platform supports data visualization to gain insights and make informed decisions. Customization: Users can often customize Matriz OD Transporte Público to fit the specific analysis needs of their public transportation system.
Analyzes public transport data using PostgreSQL and PostGIS for efficient geospatial database management. Utilizes Uber's H3 for spatial indexing, organizing data into hexagons for precise analysis. Processes transactions to generate origin-destination matrices, enhancing transport planning. Shares scripts and methodology in an open repository, promoting transparency and collaboration.
