Choose dataset to be displayed
The first datasets describe places according to demographical, economical and morphological features. They may be helpful to contextualize analyses on other datasets revealing diverse kind of interaction basins in Brussels and Belgium.
Contextualization
Demographical, economical and morphological features
Population density
Distribution of population at the place of residence
Jobs density
Distribution of population at the place of work
Built-up density
Distribution of built-up coverage
Land use
Classification of the main land use by basic spatial unit
Interactions
Results of analyses based on interrelations between places (partitions based on community detection algorithms)
Commuting data
Communities based on the intensity of regular journeys made from home- to work-places
Migration data
Communities based on the intensity of permanent house moving between places
Mobile phone calls data
Communities based on the intensity of phone calls between antennas
Trucks circulations
Communities based on the internsity of circulations of trucks (seen as a proxy of goods exchanges)
iRail data
Communities based on the intensity of train trips requests between stations
Twitter data
Communities based on the intensity of reply-to geo-located tweets
Other analyses
Complementary analyses based on similar datasets as previous section
Trucks circulations
Circulations of trucks: trafic and connections approaches
Twitter data
Distribution of reply-to geo-located tweets
