Abstract:

We investigated the feasibility of utilizing vehicular telematics data for ride-share matching. Our focus was to optimize ride-share matching for users by utilizing personal preferences, such as home and workplace locations, as well as departure and arrival times. A case study was conducted using participants’ vehicular telematics data to analyze their commuting patterns between their homes and the University of Virginia (UVA) campus. Using vehicle trip, departure, and arrival data from April 2022, this research analyzed vehicle trips over two weeks to identify individuals with similar commuting schedule preferences. By clustering vehicles based on proximity and timing, we proposed a framework for matching individuals who share similar arrival and departure schedule preferences and live close to each other, thereby facilitating coordinated ride-sharing opportunities. The findings are presented through visualizations illustrating ride-matching potential, particularly during peak commuting hours. Ride-share matching would offer a convenient solution to UVA commuters while maintaining their commuting flexibility. This approach could also offer a more sustainable transportation solution that enhances travel efficiency, lowers environmental impact, and supports the broad adoption of ride-sharing within academic and urban settings. The proposed framework provides a scalable model for systematic ride-sharing implementation and could guide future research and policy development for sustainable campus mobility solutions.
