Although various studies have been conducted,only limited overview of the factors towards urban taxi system has been provided. Consequently,a comprehensive evaluation of taxi system is essential for the urban planner to analyze the current situation and take effective measures. This paper,by using Floating Car Data( FCD),proposes a Comprehensive Taxi Assessment Index( CTAI) to quantify the quality of existing urban taxi system with the assistance of Geographic Information System( GIS) technology. The proposed index system extracts and classifies key factors,reflecting the taxi system from the perspectives of operation efficiency,customer and taxi-driver satisfaction. The system contributes to improving the organization and operation of urban taxi system. Based on the data obtained from the city of Shenzhen,Guangdong Province,China,for both weekday and weekends( Dec.,2011),the proposed CTAI was illustrated by using the Principal Component Analysis( PCA) with ArcGIS 10. 0 platform. The results indicate that the system provides a good multi-dimensional view to delve into the existing urban taxi operation, thus to point out the most sensitive indices towards the entire system,which consequently provides guidelines for future improvement and management of urban taxi system.展开更多

Since 2009, NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission have made public the information on NYC taxi operations, offering an opportunity for detailed analysis. Thus, this research project investigates taxi operations in New York City based on big data analysis. The correlation between taxi operations and different types of weather, including precipitation, snow depth, and snowfall is discussed in this paper. The research also evaluates taxi trip distribution in each NTA area using Geopandas, and presents its density on an NYC map.展开更多

针对城市出租车供需失衡、运营效率低等问题,提出一种综合考虑寻客空载与相邻载客状态的优质客源量化评价模型,利用数理统计、地理统计等时空分析方法探究其时空特征,并结合兴趣点(point of interest, POI)数据构建多时段地理加权回归...针对城市出租车供需失衡、运营效率低等问题,提出一种综合考虑寻客空载与相邻载客状态的优质客源量化评价模型,利用数理统计、地理统计等时空分析方法探究其时空特征,并结合兴趣点(point of interest, POI)数据构建多时段地理加权回归模型分析其影响因素。以重庆市2019年“五一”假期4 d与后6 d工作日出租车轨迹数据展开研究。结果表明:节假日优质客源整体较多于工作日,呈节假日首日和工作日末日较多的“U”形分布;23:00—次日5:00优质客源先减少后增加再减少,5:00—9:00逐渐增加,此后呈波动趋势并于21:00—23:00达到峰值;优质客源在6:00—10:00聚集情况最差,其余时段主要围绕重庆市中心城区“1主、6副、21组团”的商业、娱乐及交通枢纽等区域聚集,并呈现粘连趋势;交通设施、医疗机构、休闲娱乐及宾馆酒店等是影响优质客源时空分布的主要因素;节假日相比于工作日,工作、服务较规律的设施其影响强度明显降低,而提供娱乐、交通出行的设施其影响强度及时间都有显著增加。研究结果对提高出租车精细化管理具有重要意义。展开更多
