Revealing Paris Through Velib' Data

Posted: February 27th, 2008 | 1 Comment »

In parallel to my current senseable activities, I took some hours to build a follow-up to my work on Bicing and extend it to the Paris Velib’ system. For that purpose, Mathieu Arnold kindly granted me access to a large Velib’ dataset he has been accumulating over the past months. The potential of the archived and real-time data of the 900+ stations could actually lead to a nice little project on revealing the city through the citizen’s use of Velib’.
