Understanding Mobility Patterns and Decision-making Using an Integrated, Multi-modal Sensing Platform in a Quantified Community

A dataset of more than 500,000,000 WiFi probe requests from mobile devices, together with land use, demographic, and city administrative data, from an urban test-bed in New York City is being used to develop high resolution pedestrian mobility models in dense urban environments.
