Abstract
The transportation utility values calculated by traditional utility methods are not comprehensive. Some objects and factors are ignored in traditional utility methods, and this narrow perspective is their primary drawback. In intelligent transportation systems, it is necessary to calculate transportation utility for promoting public traffic planning and management. To build a sustainable intelligent transportation system, modified utility methods are essential to analyze transportation utility in a comprehensive way with innovative technologies and efficient communication systems. To solve the disadvantages of traditional utility methods, it is necessary to establish a new method to build sustainable public transport in the future. In this study, the Multiple Utility Method and Transportation Utility Method are proposed for public transport planning and management from multiple perspectives. A sample is presented to provide a better description, and 69,174 GPS-equipped taxi data in Haikou are adopted for the application of the Transportation Utility Method. The results show that the transportation utility values calculated by the Transportation Utility Method are more comprehensive than the transportation utility calculated by traditional utility methods. This indicates that it is necessary to calculate transportation utility from multiple perspectives based on the Transportation Utility Method. Future directions could include improving the methods, considering more factors, expanding the data used, and extrapolating this research to other cities around the world with similar urban metrics and urban form.
Highlights
In recent months, the coronavirus 2019-nCoV has spread all over the world, and many countries have taken emergency measures to counter the virus
A Multiple Utility Method and Transportation Utility Method are proposed for promoting public transport planning and management
How can we analyze transportation utility from multiple perspectives? How can we improve taxi services based on multiple utility analyses? various methods and data are used to explore these questions
Summary
The coronavirus 2019-nCoV has spread all over the world, and many countries have taken emergency measures to counter the virus. The passenger would benefit significantly from the trip, while the taxi driver would not, so the utility of the taxi driver would not be involved in traditional utility analyses. It is necessary to calculate transportation utility for promoting public traffic planning and management. To solve the disadvantages of traditional utility methods, it is necessary to establish a new method to build sustainable public transport in the future. A Multiple Utility Method and Transportation Utility Method are proposed for promoting public transport planning and management. As the capital city of Hainan Province, Haikou City has been given an important task—building sustainable public transport. The rest of this paper is organized as follows: Section 2 reviews related works; Section 3 introduces the formulas, models, data, and tools; Section 4 engages in a sample analysis; Section 5 applies the Transportation Utility Method in Haikou; Section 6 offers a discussion; and Section 7 summarizes the main conclusions, contributions and proposed future directions
