| Abstract | The ever-progressing advancements in urban growth and technological development in recent decades have caused a noticeable increase of the phenomenon of social-environmental deterioration, leading to a decline in quality of life, reduction of social welfare and difficult urban mobility for people living in cities. The concept of Smart City can be used to mitigate several of the challenges arising from the aforementioned issues, relying on multiple tools and techniques (such as crowdsensing) to gather essential context data about how actual citizens consume resources and commute throughout their everyday lives. In this paper, we show how an urban mobility data analytics tool may help to determine the most visited regions and interconnections in an urban area. This information has been obtained using data gathered from a pool of users participating in a crowdsensing campaign, using the ParticipAct Brazil platform. The obtained results confirm the reliability of the information produced, highlighting the regions with the highest concentration of people during the geolocation monitoring process and their connections; therefore, this data may be used to plan possible future changes to how the city allocates its resources, to better suit the mobility needs of its citizens. |
