Parking behaviour from GPS data: Data and variable description

Abstract

This study analyzes parking search behaviour in Zurich, Switzerland using already segmented and labelled GPS data collected from a smartphone-based GPS tracking app. The data include both trip purpose, socio-demographic and mobility tool ownership information, allowing for the analysis of parking search as a function of both trip purpose and parking availability at the destination. The choice of whether to parking on-street or in a parking garage is also modelled.
