Abstract

ABSTRACT Road-based freight movements are a critical component of the supply chain and transportation networks. With the drive to invest in big data collection capabilities, most of the collected freight movement data remain underutilized. To improve the efficiency and resiliency of the supply chain, it is essential to enhance the visibility of goods movements on road networks. To this end, we provide in this paper a comprehensive literature review on this topic and analyze the previous research from different perspectives, such as data levels of abstraction and existing visualization techniques. In addition, we provide a taxonomy of freight transportation visualization according to the underlying analytic objective. Furthermore, we propose a decision support tool to aid freight data analysts in selecting the right visualization tools. Finally, we identify research gaps in the field of freight transportation visualization.
