Fwd: New Mobility Dialogues at ConnectKaro 2017, New Delhi

[Ojas Shetty]

Dear Datameet members,

Connect Karo 2017 is just around the corner - 5th - 7th April. And this year we are hosting the New Mobility Dialogues on the 6th.  

The New Mobility Dialogues has four sessions based on case studies of how different data sets have been used to generate insights.

 

- 4 PM to 4:15 PM: Uber Movement

Uber Movement works with city officials, urban planners and transport planners by making anonymous GPS data from its fleet accessible. The session will throw insights on how data aggregated over time starts revealing  patterns and how that feeds into smarter data driven urban and transport planning

 

- 4:15 PM to 4:30 PM: Using cell phone data for better planning

KPIT conducted a pilot on the city of Pune by analysing positional data from cell phones to understand travel patterns at different times of the day. The session will throw insights on what emerged from pilot

 

- 5:30 PM to 5:45 PM: Partnerships for city data

WRI India Sustainable Cities conducted an accessibility study by using a toll of the world bank. The study made it possible to know from a given point in Bangalore, within a given radius, within a given time duration, how many jobs were accessible via public transport

 

- 5:45 PM to 6 PM: How the city moves

A session by Ola on how they experiment with access levels and use that data to understand how commuters change their preferences”
