Abstract

Abstract Drivers offering spare seats in their vehicles on long-distance (interurban) trips often have to pick up or drop off passengers in cities en route. In that case, it is necessary to agree on a meeting point. Often, this is done by proposing well-known locations like train stations, which frequently induces unnecessary detours through the inner-city districts. In contrast, meeting points in the vicinity of motorways and arterial roads with good public transport connection can reduce driving time and mileage. This work proposes a location-based approach to enable a fast and automatic recommendation of suitable pick up (and drop off) points for drivers and passengers using a GIS workflow and comprehensive precomputation of travel times.

基于地点和时间的城市间共享出行的会合点建议

摘要在长途（城际）旅行中，为车辆提供备用座位的司机通常不得不在途中的城市接送乘客。在这种情况下，有必要就一个会面点达成一致。通常，这是通过提议火车站等知名地点来实现的，这经常会导致在市中心地区走不必要的弯路。相比之下，在公共交通连接良好的高速公路和主干道附近的交汇点可以减少驾驶时间和里程。这项工作提出了一种基于位置的方法，使用GIS工作流程和旅行时间的全面预计算，为司机和乘客快速自动推荐合适的上下车点。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
