Mobility Analytics: Planning urban and regional infrastructure
Beyond the horizon: mobility is more than just moving from A to B. It is the product of the infrastructure surrounding it, which limits or enables it.

To ensure that new mobility offers find fertile ground and have a lasting and holistically positive impact on our townscape and countryside, it makes sense not only to look at public transport, but also to look beyond it and to look around the area in question. 

For example by means of the following questions: 

  • Where are the charging stations for e-cars located? 
  • How well developed is the local station? 
  • What are the ideal locations for parcel centres, co-working spaces, car-sharing offers etc.? 

Together with Smart City, we get to the bottom of these questions and, based on a data-based analysis of selected areas, enable the tailor-made planning of new infrastructure measures that go beyond pure mobility solutions, but are linked in their effect and benefits to our claim of more mobility and less traffic for a sustainable future.   

For DB Station, for example, we analysed the status quo of charging points and corresponding infrastructure throughout Germany. The result? Already 1,000 stations have at least one loading point within 300 metres, five percent of which are fast loading points. In total, this means that a total of 3,500 electric cars can be loaded simultaneously in the immediate vicinity of the stations. 

And what problem can we analyse for you?

The recently announced partnership between ioki and Vesputi promises innovations in the field of mobility services. Passengers can now buy their tickets directly in the on-demand apps from ioki. But what does this actually look like in reality? We spoke to Henrik Umnus, Managing Director of the Verkehrsbetrieb Greifswald GmbH. A year ago, the on-demand service “Friedrich” took to the streets of Greifswald and has been transporting passengers without a fixed timetable ever since. Now passengers can book their public transport tickets directly in the on-demand app. Have fun reading!

Milena works as a Technical Product Manager in the Mobility Analytics & Consulting team. She came to ioki through an internship after completing her maths degree. As a mathematician, she has a passion for anything related to optimisation and it was important to her to use her skills to shape the future. She then discovered the area of mobility through a seminar at university on mathematical transport planning.
