Jan-Dirk Schmöcker is an Associate Professor within the School of Global Engineering and the Department of Urban Management at Kyoto University since 2010. He studied at Technical University Berlin, Newcastle University and Imperial College London from where he obtained his PhD. A major longstanding research topic of his is modelling of passenger behavior in public transportation networks including aspects such as fare structures, crowding, bunching and real-time information. Jan-Dirk’s current research interests further cover the usage of crowdsourced data for understanding travel behavior in general and urban tourism in particular. The overall motivation is to induce more sustainable travel patterns within cities and to stimulate a discussion on “transport sufficiency”.
