Abstract
Urban mobility analysis usually examines large cities or even regions. We take another angle and examine a university campus as a city within a city to focus on small-scale and hyperlocal characteristics. The campus mobility data exhibits a high spatial and temporal granularity that we use to drive analyses and visualizations towards the aim of campus analytics. We describe the abstraction approaches and visualizations used towards the development of our tool and share initial results of campus analytics.
