With the increasing availability and affordability, crowdsourced data has been considered to be a cost-effective way to bridge the data gap for decision making and performance measures. The anticipated objectives of this project are to: (1) collect crowdsourced bike data, land use, and relevant socio-economic data in Wisconsin, (2) compute bicycle link-level volumes based on the input variables for on-street bike facilities (e.g., streets, bike lanes, shared path, shoulders), and off-street bike facilities such as trails, (3) analyze the cyclist injury risk, and generate bike ridership maps and bike crash maps, and (4) provide policy recommendations based on bike risk analysis.
