Influence of air quality on human mobility: a case study using PM & CO data

Published:01 November 2022Publication History

ABSTRACT

Understanding complex human mobility in the current digital era is very difficult, especially in highly populated metropolitan areas. The benefits of knowing urban mobility come in many ways and these include, but are not limited to, informing regional planners to better manage urban transportation, providing policy makers with provide reasonable strategies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and assisting city officials to promote sustainable infrastructural plans, among many others. In this study, we explored the relationship between air quality data - particulate matter (PM) data (PM10 and PM2.5) and carbon monoxide (CO) - and the human mobility data in South Korea. This relationship is further implemented to an agent-based model (ABM) to replicate population mobility reflected based on these datasets in order to discover and simulate air quality with respect to human mobility.
