sfeerbeeld Kick-off DATA SIM at UHasselt The kick-off of the EU FP7 project DATA SIM took place on 19, 20 and 21 October at Hasselt University
DATA SIM is an FP7 collaborative project financed by the Information Society and Media Directorate-General.
DATA SIM aims at providing an entirely new and highly detailed spatial-temporal microsimulation methodology for human mobility, grounded on massive amounts of big data of various types and from various sources (e.g. GPS, mobile phones and social networking sites) with the goal to forecast the nation-wide consequences of a massive switch to electric vehicles, given the intertwined nature of mobility and power distribution networks.
Led by the Transportation Research Institute (IMOB) of Hasselt University, the project consists of 9 partners from 7 different countries.
