User-centric analysis of a safe routes solution for urban collectives
Abstract
Context-aware mobility has the potential to make the way we travel more efficient, safer and more sustainable. Among the possible contexts, security, in terms of crime levels in the regions, is one that has been used to calculate safer routes. However, the existing works focus on private vehicles, and do not assess the impact generated for citizens as a whole. In this work, a existing solution for calculating safe routes is evaluated in the context of public bus transport in terms of the impact caused to passengers. The results showed that, in general, changing a bus route to make it safer increases the distance traveled by a few kilometers for most passengers. In addition to this analysis, a tool for extracting scalable mobility flows was also implemented.
