Spatial interpolation of mobile positioning data for population statistics
ABSTRACT Mobile positioning is recognised to be one of the most promising new sources of data for the production of fast and cost-effective statistics regarding population and mobility. Considerable interest has been shown by government institutions in their search for a way to use mobile positioning data to produce official statistics, although to date there are only few examples of successful projects. Apart from data access and sampling, the main challenges relate to the spatial interpolation of mobile positioning data and extrapolation of recorded data to the level of the entire population. This area of work has to date received relatively little attention in the academic discussion. In the current study, we compare five different methods of spatial interpolation of mobile positioning data. The best methods of describing population distribution and size in comparison with Census data are the adaptive Morton grid and the Random forest model (R2 > 0.9), while the more widely used point-in-polygon and areal-weighted methods produce results that are far less satisfactory (R2 = 0.42; R2 = 0.35). Careful selection of spatial interpolation methods is therefore of the utmost importance for producing reliable population statistics from mobile positioning data.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this interdisciplinary and international journal is to provide a forum for the exchange of original ideas, techniques, designs and experiences in the rapidly growing field of location based services on networked mobile devices. It is intended to interest those who design, implement and deliver location based services in a wide range of contexts. Published research will span the field from location based computing and next-generation interfaces through telecom location architectures to business models and the social implications of this technology. The diversity of content echoes the extended nature of the chain of players required to make location based services a reality.
