- Abstract
Community detection can reveal specific urban spatial structures related to human activities, and is achieved using mobility data from various sources. In the existing research, less attention has been devoted to communities related to urban transit travel. As public transit is a key component of the urban transport system, it is important to understand how transit communities are organized and how they evolve. This research proposes an approach to urban transit travel community detection using transit travel data and examines how the communities have evolved over time. The results in Shenzhen from 2015 to 2017 showed that the transit travel network had an obvious community structure, and the components (TAZs in this case) of the communities changed over time. During the three years, the western part of Shenzhen experienced more component changes on weekdays, and the central part of the city underwent more component changes on weekdays. In addition, the transit travel communities had a significant coupling relationship with urban administrative divisions. Exploring transit travel communities provides insight for improving public transit systems and enriches the research genealogy of urban spatial structure.
