At this year's conference of the Cycling Research Board, an international platform for innovative approaches to cycling research, the Chair of Transport Ecology presented current research projects relating to bicycle mobility. From the analysis of cycling behavior in cities to the use of OpenStreetMap data for the improvement of cycling infrastructure, the researchers presented a wide range of topics.

Iwan Porojkow, research assistant at the Chair of Transport Ecology, received the award for the best session of the conference for his contribution entitled “Enhancing OpenStreetMap data with computer vision and Street View images”. Congratulations

Research on active mobility at the Faculty of Transportation Sciences

At the Chair of Transport Ecology, researchers at the BikeLab are particularly concerned with analyzing the behavior of cyclists and measures to make cycling more attractive, thereby making important contributions to active mobility and liveable cities.

Interesting insights into cycling research at TU Dresden can be found in the current article “Right of way for bicycles: How can cycling become safer and more attractive?” from the video series “Gute Frage”:

Cycling Research Board: International platform for cycling research

The Cycling Research Board's Annual Meeting CRBAM brings together a wide range of inter- and transdisciplinary research topics relating to cycling and is an important platform for exchange and networking. In particular, it promotes young scientists who want to help shape the future of cycling with innovative methods and creative approaches.
