A Spatiotemporal Study and Location-Specific Trip Pattern Categorization of Shared E-Scooter Usage
This study analyzes the temporally resolved location and trip data of shared e-scooters over nine months in Berlin from one of Europe’s most widespread operators. We apply time, distance, and energy consumption filters on approximately 1.25 million trips for outlier detection and trip categorization...
