Abstract:

This study investigates the applicability of a trip purpose estimation method proposed by the authors (cf. Kusakabe and Asakura (1)) to transit users in Brisbane, Australia. In particular, this study expands the application to multiple groups of stations and stops. Further, this study identifies the trip features that improve the estimation accuracy. In order to calibrate the model, this study employs a Household Travel Survey data collected by South-East Queensland travel survey. The success rate of the estimation depends on the types of the trip purposes. The major trip purposes (“change mode”, “education”, “work related”, and “at home”) were accurately estimated. This validation provides promising results for the applicability of the method to the transit boarding and alighting data collected by smart card systems in major cities.
