Summary | Understanding the movement behavior of tourists between attractions and the number of visitors at the attractions is helpful to improve the tourism policy, the public transportation services and the management department’s resource allocation. With the rapid development of technology and the increasing popularity of people using mobile phones to access the Internet, cellular data has the advantages of larger sample size, broader coverage and lower collection cost in human mobility prediction. Applying big data to explore users’ spatial-temporal trajectory can identify the potential movement patterns of users and provide subsequent applications. |
