Abstract Georeferenced messages on social media represent a powerful data source to gain a different perspective for estimating mobility behaviour, which is still mainly based on travel surveys. These data are openly available, yet few studies have explored their potential. This paper assesses the feasibility of large-scale Twitter data as a proxy of human mobility behaviour to complement traditional travel surveys, and for calibration and validation of transport models. Almost 12 million Tweets from more than 90,000 users were further analysed to detect the trip patterns at municipality level in Norway from 2012 to 2022. Results showed that the mobility patterns changed between 2014 and 2019 for the travel survey, as for 2019 most of the reported trips were short and concentrated in the densely populated areas of the country, where most respondents lived, triggering a lack of information for certain areas. In contrast, Twitter data presented a more stable data source along both years with similar population distribution and average trip length. Although Twitter data have limitations in relation to the socio-demographic information of the users, it could complement the travel survey given the broader spatial and temporal distribution of this large-scale data. |
