Purpose and goal
This project brings together a team to jointly utilize big data analysis, optimization techniques and digital tools to improve the planning, optimization and management of parking and charging solutions for shared micromobility systems (SMS). The project aims to push the boundaries of current technology by developing scalable, big data-driven digital solutions for the deployment and management of SMS parking and charging.
Expected effects and result
With the help of developed digital solutions, urban managers and relevant stakeholders (e.g. SMS operators) can make the optimal planning and deployment of parking space and charging based on field big data, and compare the performances of SMS under different management and planning with quantitative evaluations. The outcomes are expected to navigate decision-making in the right direction with solid data-driven evidence and scientific optimization instead of insufficient trial-and-error.
Planned approach and implementation
This project will firstly use data-driven method to estimate the spatiotemporal parking and charging demands of SMS based on big data. Afterwards, we will develop planning and optimization methods of parking space (where and how much) and modular charging at the zone level for SMS. Most importantly, this project will design a digital tool with high scalability and adaptability for management of parking spaces and charging of SMS, based on a digital tool at Chalmers.
