ABSTRACT

Recently, mobile devices embedded with location-based tracking functions have become prevalent across the globe. These devices are also useful tools for conducting large scale, representative human behavioral research. In this paper, I review some seminal attempts that tried to first gather the data of citizens’ time-space behaviors by using mobile devices, then analyze and visualize urban daily activities. In addition, I investigate some of the barriers to the wide implementation of these kinds of experiments, focusing on data access and permission issues as well as personal privacy issues.
