Benefits of Relocation on E-scooter Sharing - a Data-Informed Approach
2021 IEEE International Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC), 2021 E-scooter sharing lets people rent an e-scooter while the system owner manages the fleet. Relocation is fundamental to increase system utilization and revenues, but it is also an expensive task. In this paper we aim at assessing the benefits of relocation while quantifying its economic costs. For this, we rely on trace driven simulations where we build
