Recent developments in volunteered geographic information (VGI) have provided new opportunities for improving city services by enabling citizens instantly and collectively share and report issues. However, the usefulness of VGI for such use has not been evaluated from a citizen perspective. This paper aims to bridge this research gap through a case study that innovatively uses geosocial media, as an example of VGI, for reporting accessibility issues to local governments and for providing customized navigation services to the general public. Particularly, a study website was developed that allows citizen participants to evaluate the usefulness of geosocial media for issue reporting and for pedestrian navigation. The results suggest that citizens consider geosocial media useful for helping them maneuver dynamic urban environments and for providing a convenient tool for issue reporting. These results suggest that citizens evaluate the usefulness of VGI differently from government officials and that VGI can facilitate government-citizen communication as well as the provision of customized public services, both of which are important to the development of smart cities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100933,"journal":{"name":"Multimodal Transportation","volume":"4 3","pages":"Article 100223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143738695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines Kampala's transportation sustainability and addresses existing knowledge gaps. It leverages the TIMES-VEDA model, an acronym for “The Integrated MARKAL-EFOM System - Versatile Data Analyst.” TIMES-VEDA is an engineering optimizer used to explore four scenarios: Business-as-Usual (BAU), Reduction in Electricity Consumption (REC), Renewable Electricity Portfolio (REP), and Carbon Reduction Target (CRT). These scenarios analyze the inherent aspects of the Kampala metropolis energy system, providing a foundation for evidence-based decision-making. The approach aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (UN's SDGs 7, 11, &amp; 13), Uganda's Vision 2040, and the third National Development Plan (NDPIII). The analysis demonstrates that sustainability is within range and highlights the imperative of a holistic approach, the potential of mass rapid transit, anchored by an electrified metro system, to advance green mobility. It sheds light on sustainable practices and trade-offs among distinctive pathways, suggesting a mix of policy measures to combat climate change. The KAMPALA-TIMES model, a bottom-up framework, reveals that a region-specific policy package, particularly the CRT scenario, achieves significant decarbonization, promoting eco-friendly multimodal transportation and paving the way for a more sustainable future for Kampala until 2060. The findings inform policy on urban planning and sustainable transportation that is adaptable elsewhere, ensuring long-term environmental and economic resilience.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100933,"journal":{"name":"Multimodal Transportation","volume":"4 3","pages":"Article 100220"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143768359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate predictions of future vehicle movements are essential for applications such as autonomous driving, traffic management, and collision avoidance systems. However, many existing methods either focus solely on spatial or temporal dimensions, neglecting the dynamic interactions between vehicles, which reduces prediction accuracy, especially in complex traffic scenarios. To address these limitations, the study proposes a Spatial-Temporal Graph-Based Long Short-Term Memory model, which integrates graph convolutional networks with long short-term memory networks to effectively capture both spatial relationships and temporal dependencies in vehicle trajectories. The proposed model employs a proximity-based method to construct dynamic adjacency matrices that represent real-time vehicle interactions. To capture spatial dependencies between vehicles, the study uses graph convolutional networks to model the relationships between neighboring vehicles. The long short-term memory network is then applied to capture temporal dynamics by learning the sequential dependencies in vehicle movement patterns. The output from the long short-term memory network is passed through a fully connected layer, which generates trajectory predictions for each vehicle. The study experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms existing state-of-the-art models across various prediction metrics. Specifically, at 3s and 4s prediction horizons, the model reduces the root mean square error by 22.4 % and 25.5 %, respectively, compared to the best performing interaction-aware long short-term memory model. At the 5s prediction horizon, the model achieves a significant root mean square error reduction of 26.6 %. These findings highlight the model's potential to improve safety and decision-making in autonomous driving systems and traffic management applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100933,"journal":{"name":"Multimodal Transportation","volume":"4 3","pages":"Article 100222"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143714709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A key contribution of this research is the identification of hidden risk factors influencing fatality rates, including temporal patterns that revealed a surge in fatalities after 17:00, with increased risks associated with non-seatbelt use during late evening and early morning hours. Younger drivers, particularly active at night, were found to exhibit higher rates of non-seatbelt usage and were more likely to be involved in severe accidents.
