bluebike: A Data Package for
Bluebike users# needed packages in vignette
library(bluebike)
library(dplyr)
library(leaflet)Our package includes data from the Boston Blue Bike trip history data
acquired from the Blue
Bikes System Data. The users can import all monthly trip history
data from 2020 to 2022 into a cleaned data set that can easily be used
for data analysis.
The package also includes a sample data set that includes 1000
sampled trip history from Feb. 2022, and a full data set that contains
information about all available stations. Functions inside the
package:
import_month_data: takes in numeric year/month
values and imports data for the specified time
station_distance: returns stations with distance in
ascending order given the user’s current location
station_radius: plots the position of the stations
within walking distance (500 m), and present the basic information about
the stations via leaflet
trip_distance: computes the geographical distance
between the start and end stations
The package would be a useful tool for the Blue Bike operations to analyze the trip data and help improve the shared bike service based on user data. It is also an easy-to-use tool for data analysis and visualization for anyone interested in the Blue Bike trip data. ## Data Sets Included
trip_history_sample: a sample of 1000 trip data entries
from February 2022.station_data: A dataset that includes identification,
position, and other basic information about bluebike stationslibrary(bluebike)
library(dplyr)import_month_data enables users to retrieve monthly data
from Bluebike System Data website.
