Daily mobility patterns and costs 2019 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua

Abstract

This research presents the daily mobility patterns during 2019 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. Due to the lack of recent and available information, origin-destination surveys, traditional statistics and Dijkstra’s algorithm using Geographic Information Systems, to analyze displacements throughout the urban area divided into 64 polygons. Descriptive patterns at the urban scale were determined from variables such as distances and times of each trip, origin and destination places, schedules, reasons, types of transportation, expenditure and household income. The results show the areas with the highest demand for mobility, as well as the preferences and costs involved in moving within the city.
