Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to investigate how survey data can be used to identify factors that influence people's choices of transportation for their daily commutes, specifically among public sector employees in Finland.
  • Researchers used data from a large survey involving over 42,000 employees, focusing on those commuting 5 km or less, to create a prediction model for commuting behaviors in various weather conditions.
