Transport sustainability indicators for an enhanced urban analytics data infrastructure

Abstract

This paper examines capabilities of a new Spatial Data Infrastructure called Urban Analytics Data Infrastructure (UADI1), through deriving and evaluating transport sustainability indicators. The UADI was developed in Australia to support multi-disciplinary and cross-jurisdictional analytics to overcome the challenges related to model generalisation, data accessibility, data integration, data heterogeneity and city performance benchmarking. In this paper, the UADI were evaluated through 5 technical lenses of: data accessibility; integration; harmonisation; data reliability and model reliability. The paper shows that using open geospatial standards in UADI enabled transport sustainability indi..
