Social Media in Transportation Research and Promising Applications

The newly emerged social media data can collect large quantities of location, time information, as well as the fully detailed text messages, which in turn contribute to existing transportation studies. With the wide spread of mobile device, information acquired from social media appears to be easier and larger than the traditional data collection methods and the related topics cover a wide range of transportation-related events.
