Abstract
Predicting transportation demand in a predetermined area, based on estimating a present mobility demand and based on user group preferences. Generated transportation need requests include at least a time stamp, a pick-up coordinate, a drop-off coordinate, a user group indication, a pick-up venue category based on the pick-up coordinate, and a drop-off venue category based on the drop-off coordinate. A signal indicative of the transportation need request is provided.
