Example of taxi GPS data processing
The following example shows how to use the TransBigData
to perform data gridding, data aggregating and data visualization for taxi GPS data.
Read the data
import transbigdata as tbd
import pandas as pd
#Read taxi gps data
data = pd.read_csv('TaxiData-Sample.csv',header = None)
data.columns = ['VehicleNum','time','lon','lat','OpenStatus','Speed']
data
VehicleNum | time | lon | lat | OpenStatus | Speed | |

Data pre-processing
Define the study area and use the tbd.clean_outofbounds
method to delete the data out of the study area
#Define the study area
bounds = [113.75, 22.4, 114.62, 22.86]
#Delete the data out of the study area
data = tbd.clean_outofbounds(data,bounds = bounds,col = ['lon','lat'])
Data gridding
The most basic way to express the data distribution is in the form of geograpic grids. TransBigData
provides methods to generate multiple types of geographic grids (Rectangular grids, Hexagonal grids) in the research area. For rectangular gridding, you need to determine the gridding parameters at first (which can be interpreted as defining a grid coordinate system):
#Obtain the gridding parameters
params = tbd.area_to_params(bounds,accuracy = 1000)
params
{'slon': 113.75, 'slat': 22.4, 'deltalon': 0.00974336289289822, 'deltalat': 0.008993210412845813, 'theta': 0, 'method': 'rect', 'gridsize': 1000}
The gridding parameters store the information of the initial position, the size and the angle of the gridding system.
The next step is to map the GPS data to their corresponding grids. Using the tbd.GPS_to_grid
, it will generate the LONCOL
column and the LATCOL
column (Rectangular grids). The two columns together can specify a grid:
#Map the GPS data to grids
data['LONCOL'],data['LATCOL'] = tbd.GPS_to_grid(data['lon'],data['lat'],params)
Count the amount of data in each grids, generate the geometry of the grids and transform it into a GeoDataFrame:
#Aggregate data into grids
grid_agg = data.groupby(['LONCOL','LATCOL'])['VehicleNum'].count().reset_index()
#Generate grid geometry
grid_agg['geometry'] = tbd.grid_to_polygon([grid_agg['LONCOL'],grid_agg['LATCOL']],params)
#Change the type into GeoDataFrame
import geopandas as gpd
grid_agg = gpd.GeoDataFrame(grid_agg)
#Plot the grids
grid_agg.plot(column = 'VehicleNum',cmap = 'autumn_r')
Triangle and Hexagon grids & rotation angle
TransBigData
also support the triangle and hexagon grids. It also supports given rotation angle for the grids. We can alter the gridding parameter:
#set to the hexagon grids
params['method'] = 'hexa'
#or set as triangle grids: params['method'] = 'tri'
#set a rotation angle (degree)
params['theta'] = 5
Then we can do the GPS data matching again:
#Triangle and Hexagon grids requires three columns to store ID
data['loncol_1'],data['loncol_2'],data['loncol_3'] = tbd.GPS_to_grid(data['lon'],data['lat'],params)
#Aggregate data into grids
grid_agg = data.groupby(['loncol_1','loncol_2','loncol_3'])['VehicleNum'].count().reset_index()
#Generate grid geometry
grid_agg['geometry'] = tbd.grid_to_polygon([grid_agg['loncol_1'],grid_agg['loncol_2'],grid_agg['loncol_3']],params)
#Change the type into GeoDataFrame
import geopandas as gpd
grid_agg = gpd.GeoDataFrame(grid_agg)
#Plot the grids
grid_agg.plot(column = 'VehicleNum',cmap = 'autumn_r')
Data Visualization(with basemap)
For a geographical data visualization figure, we still have to add the basemap, the colorbar, the compass and the scale. Use tbd.plot_map
to load the basemap and tbd.plotscale
to add compass and scale in matplotlib figure:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig =plt.figure(1,(8,8),dpi=300)
ax =plt.subplot(111)
plt.sca(ax)
#Load basemap
tbd.plot_map(plt,bounds,zoom = 11,style = 4)
#Define colorbar
cax = plt.axes([0.05, 0.33, 0.02, 0.3])
plt.title('Data count')
plt.sca(ax)
#Plot the data
grid_agg.plot(column = 'VehicleNum',cmap = 'autumn_r',ax = ax,cax = cax,legend = True)
#Add scale
tbd.plotscale(ax,bounds = bounds,textsize = 10,compasssize = 1,accuracy = 2000,rect = [0.06,0.03],zorder = 10)
plt.axis('off')
plt.xlim(bounds[0],bounds[2])
plt.ylim(bounds[1],bounds[3])
plt.show()
