Abstract(s)
In this paper we present a low-cost infrastructure
to collect a variety of location-based multi-sourced data with the
aim of providing personalized services and raising awareness for
sustainable mobility solutions. The gathered data can be used to
provide: (i) citizens and tourists with personalized location-based
services to increase sustainability awareness; (ii) local authorities
and tourism boards with a tool to identify and prevent mobility
issues; and (iii) transport companies with an instrument to
support urban mobility planning decisions. To collect data, we
exploited a low-cost Wi-Fi passive tracking system and we
augmented this infrastructure using sensors for detecting
environmental conditions. To achieve this, we provided 60 points
of interest and 20 buses with our solution, to spread out the
sensors over the entire Madeira Island. Using the gathered data,
we developed different scenarios to prove that in a world where
sensing data is becoming inexpensive, there are opportunities to
use our approach to deliver data back to the citizens,
empowering local communities, with the goal of promoting
sustainable mobility and tourism.
