5:00 PM Hyatt: Texas Ballroom 5–7 Transportation Meets Tech: Mobile & Big Data How can you visualize collaborative consumption using data? That is a question that many people want to know. At car2go we use the data from trips taken and create movement maps that show patterns of how people move in a city. This allows car2go to be more predictive in our modeling for both operational tasks and targeted market- ing campaigns. Magic occurs when mobile and big data are combined.
