Our article titled “Enhancing Route Planning for Recreational Cyclists: A Comparative Analysis of Elevation Data Accuracy and Field Validation” has been published in the Transportation Research Record journal.
This study, conducted in collaboration with Dr. Abdulkadir Ozden,
• Addresses the accuracy of elevation data in planning recreational cycling routes,
• Provides a comparative analysis of different digital elevation models (DEM) with field measurements,
• Examines their direct impact on route optimization and user experience with a scientific and application-oriented approach.
Within this framework, it provides applicable and robust outputs for both researchers and decision-makers in the fields of sustainable transportation, active mobility, bicycle infrastructure planning, and GIS-based route analysis.
