Abstract
The latest travel behavior modelling frameworks consider travel decisions as part of a general time- and expenditure allocation problem. Their estimation consequently not only relies on large amounts of travel data, but also on information about time-use and expenditure allocation patterns. We present the TimeUse+ Platform, a novel data collection method based on state-of-the-art GPS-tracking technology. Our approach combines a travel and a time-use diary format into one comprehensive survey design. This multi-layered diary format allows to collect more accurate and complete data when compared to previous work which is solely based on traditional paper-based survey methods. This paper gives a detailed overview about the main components of the TimeUse+ Platform. We derive requirements from the current state in smartphone-based survey methods and travel behavior modelling, and show how the different design aspects of our solution fulfill those.
