About this app

Commute Warrior allows users to track their daily second-by-second travel activity. The data collected by Commute Warrior will be used by Georgia Tech researchers to study travel behavior and estimate travel times across corridors. Travel monitoring is automatic, recording second-by-second position and satellite details without any interaction on the part of the participant. Commute Warrior monitors walking, bicycling, transit, and personal vehicle trips.


FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Commute Warrior provides flexibility with regard to data transmission. Commute Warrior can be set to track and log travel data for later upload over WiFi or transmit data in real time using the wireless data plan.

Commute Warrior allows the user to set a battery level that, when reached, automatically discontinues the operation of the CW App. This feature helps ensure user battery levels remain above desired levels.

Commute Warrior users can review their travel patterns for any monitored day.

The travel activity are displayed using an open source mapping system (OpenStreetMaps) for the users to review.
Users are requested to complete travel diary surveys for targeted days. The survey data will be used in studying travel behavior.
