Orientation and group dynamics were introduced. Team members were able to meet and look at the goals for their project. OUr group met with Dr. Huang and our graduate student mentor Jason about what the goal of of our project was. Terry introduced us to the GT-31 GPS tracker and we set them up to collect GPS data for mining and analysis. We learned about the basics of ridesharing and how the mean occupancy per vehicle is 1.6 persons per vehicle mile in the US.
Read online documents/manuals for additional understanding and configurations of the GT-31 GPS tracker. Met with Dr. Huang in the lab. Jason and Terry provided an overview of the RideShare research statement. Also, Dr. Huang mentioned ways data is being captured using taxis in Shanghai. After configuring the GT-31’s we found that an SD card no larger than a 2GB would be recognized by the devices.
