324 existing stations; 10,000 suggested stations; 65,000 votes238 existing stations; 3,000 suggested stations; 11,000 votes
Stations and suggestions were partitioned in different ways for analysis
We studied the historical usage data for both Capital Bikeshare and CitiBike to find the answer to
two questions about the effects of crowdsourcing urban planning on bikeshare systems
Does bikeshare system usage reflect crowdsourced suggestions….?
Does the placement of new stations reflect crowdsourced suggestions…?
FindingsActual system usage by region does not strongly correlate with crowdsourced requests and suggestions
Larger groupings of suggestions had stronger correlations in general with actual station usage
Station placement over time does indicate an effort to respond to the crowdsourced data
