Spyce cannot be developed without the urban context.
We can only meet the challenges of developing and implementing innovative, sustainable urban mobility services if all stakeholders are involved.
The collection, analysis and visualisation of mobility data are of particular importance here. OpenData initiatives are developing worldwide in the metropolises.
Here, cities are dependent on the cooperation of local administrations, transport companies and other providers. Based on standards such as the GTFS (General Transit Feed Specification) developed by Google, timetables for public transport and the associated geographical information can be exchanged.
The Institute for Transportation and Development Policy has established eight principles for sustainable urban planning:
WALK | Develop neighbourhoods that promote walking
CYCLE | Prioritize non-motorized transport networks
CONNECT | Create dense networks of streets and paths
TRANSIT | Locate development near high-quality public transport
MIX | Plan for mixed-use
DENSIFY | Optimize density and transit capacity
COMPACT | Create regions with short commutes
SHIFT | Increase mobility by regulating parking and road use
To increase the efficiency of individual transport and general mobility, we would like to add another goal:
COMMUNITY | Promoting commonality for efficient mobility
The integration into the mobility planning of the cities is an essential concern for Movebis. Movebis wants to provide anonymous data for “SmartCity OS” projects.
The involvement of the users is a valuable exchange for more transparency and sensitisation for the mobility of the future.
