Abstract

The rivalry between ridesourcing and the traditional taxi has posed great challenges to traffic management authorities. Understanding the spatial patterns and influencing factors of their usage can help traffic authorities develop insightful policies and strategies to coordinate the operations of the two services better. This study develops a novel geographically and temporally weighted regression model (GTWR) to unravel the spatiotemporal patterns and influencing factors of the two services based on a high-resolution GPS dataset. The developed GTWR model achieves greater performance than other traditional methods. The results reveal that the spatiotemporal impacts of influencing factors on the usage of ridesourcing are quite different from that of traditional taxi. The spatiotemporal distribution and evolution of the coefficients are further discussed. The findings of the study could help traffic management authorities develop efficient regulatory policies to enhance the operations of the two services in specific areas and periods.
