A data analysis and visualization system for large-scale e-bike data

摘要

Electric bikes (e-bikes) are booming in China, providing a flexible and energy-efficient trip mode for people all around the country. However, the problems such as traffic accidents and disrupting social order caused by e-bikes bring much worry to the government operators. And the behavior of e-bike users also attracts the sociological researchers' interest due to their characteristics (e.g. lower income and higher mobility). In order to facilitate government operators in monitoring e-bikes and to help sociological researchers study the behavior of e-bike users, we develop a data analysis and visualization system based on large-scale e-bike data. We analyze the e-bike mobility and e-bike user behavior, and design a visual interface that allows interaction with the analysis results. Our system not only provides the function of e-bike monitoring but also serves as a platform for mobility analysis and user behavior analysis.
