DESCRIPTION:Prof. Luis Miranda-Moreno\nLuis is an Associate Professor in t
 he Department of Civil Engineering\, McGill University. His specialty is i
 n transportation safety\, data collection and monitoring methods and techn
 ologies\, and sustainable transport strategies. His research interests inc
 lude the development of crash-risk analysis methods\, the development and 
 integration of systems for traffic monitoring\, the impact of climate on m
 obility\, energy efficiency measures and non-motorized transportation.\nAb
 stract The seminar presents the current development of a smartphone-based
  system for collecting and analyzing route GPS data coming from cyclists a
 nd drivers routes. Using GPS functionality on Android and iOS smartphones 
 to log route data\, a large database containing thousands of trips is coll
 ected in a short period of time after a mass-media campaign in Canadian ci
 ties. For motorists\, a platform is built for mapping traffic congestion u
 sing link-level indicators such as speeds or travel times\, speed differen
 tials\, etc. For cyclists\, a platform is built for mapping bike activity 
 and injury risks in the entire network\, which is used for identifying rou
 tes and/or intersections at high risk and identifying bicycle infrastructu
 re needs. Work in progress is discussed at the end of this presentation.
