Aspects of E-Scooter Sharing in the Smart City
Informatics, 2022 The contemporary urban environment faces such challenges as overloaded traffic, heavy pollution, and social problems, etc. The concept of the “smart city” allows solving some of these issues. One of the opportunities provided by the smart city is the development of micro-mobility and sharing services; contributing to the optimization of transport flows

E-scooter Sharing Platforms: Understanding Their Architecture and Cybersecurity Threats
2023 IEEE 26th International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC), 2023 E-scooter sharing platforms (ESPs) offer fast, affordable and flexible urban mobility solutions, with numerous benefits such as reducing traffic congestion, air pollution and carbon emissions. However, the long-term sustainability of the platform could be challenged by the threats and risks it faces because these can negatively impact the system and ...

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

Modeling the Demand for Shared E-Scooter Services
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2021 This paper presents the findings on modeling the demand for shared e-scooter services (SES); specifically, spatio-temporal variation of SES demand. A zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) model is developed using the count data of trip origins at the dissemination area level from Kelowna, Canada.

Spatial associations of dockless shared e-scooter usage
Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020 In this study, we explore the usage of e-scooter sharing services in Austin, Texas over about a six-month period. The study is based on trip records of all the shared e-scooter operators in Austin and includes trip start and end locations. We use both analysis of trip patterns and spatial regression techniques to examine how the built environment, land

Understanding the Shared E-scooter Travels in Austin, TX
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 This paper investigated the travel patterns of 1.7 million shared E-scooter trips from April 2018 to February 2019 in Austin, TX. There were more than 6000 active E-scooters in operation each month, generating over 150,000 trips and covered approximately 117,000 miles.

Shared vs. private e-scooters: Same vehicle – different mode? Empirical evidence on e-scooter usage in Germany [PDF]
Transportation Research Procedia, 2023 Various aspects of e-scooters as new mode of transport have already been discussed in science and society. However, little is known on differences between privately-owned and shared e-scooters regarding user characteristics and usage patterns. In this study, a large online survey is conducted to evaluate specific characteristics of the same vehicle in ...
