The Purpose of this Paper is to compare and analyze the operational condition of corporation-owned and owner-driver taxies using tachometer output data. The empirical findings from this study are as follows : First, although corporation-owned taxies have long operating mileage and service driving mileage per vehicle. the service rate of owner-driver taxies were 3.5 percent higher than corporation-owned taxies. Secondly it is found that operation mileage, service driving mileage, and service Income except non-service driving mileage have statistically significant differences between corporation owned and owner-driver taxies. In addition. there was a weak correlation between the income and non-service driving mileage of owner-driver taxies. It is concluded that owner-driver taxies joined the call-taxi association and call-taxi services decreased non-service driving mileage.

1999년 8월에 발표된 "택시 타코미터 자료분석을 통한 운송수입금에 관한 연구"에 의하면 당시 택시 운행기록에 바탕을 두어 택시업체들의 지역적 입지를 고려한 표본을 추출하여 운송수입금과 관련하여 운행거리, 영업거리, 영업률의 요일별, 오전·오후별 분석을 실시하여 현실성을 충분히 감안한 연구가 이루어진바 있다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 좀더 정확한 운송수입금 분석을 위해 2000년에 택시조합과 협의하여 전년도 자료와 비교 분석하여 그 추이를 살피고, 지역별, 규모별 분석을 추가함으로써 현재 택시업계에서 가장 논란이 되고 있는 운송수입금 전액관리제에 대한 기초 연구 자료를 마련하고자 진행된 것이다. 분석대상은 서울시 전체 택시 업체 259개 중 10%가 넘는 31개 업체의 33,967개 일주일간 타코기록을 입력하여, 운송수입금, 운행거리, 주행거리, 영업률 등 4개 항목으로 나누어 연도별, 지역별, 규모별로 구분하여 각각을 분석하였다. 분석항목의 타당성을 검토하기 위하여 각각의 분석항목에 대한 분산분석(ANOVA)을 통해 평균치의 차이를 검정하였다 분석결과는 각 분석항목별로 요일별, 지역별, 규모별 차이는 거의 없는 것으로 나타났으나, 오전·오후간의 항목별 차이는 전년도와 마찬가지로 대부분의 항목에서 매우 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한 전년도에 비해 운송수입금이 증가하여 운행거리, 영업거리, 영업률도 증가 추이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

Taxicab distance function is a practical distance notion which gives us information of real world pathway distance that really taxi can go through. As one of the non-Euclidean geometry, this study of an ideal city with all roads running horizontal or vertical, was introduced by the Russian Mathematician H. Minkowski and synthetically reported by the E. F. Kraus in 1986. After that, there were many reports and papers on this topic and still being researched. At this point of view, our research about taxicab geometry provides its differences from Euclidean plane geometry, and considers about several theorems on plane geometry using the taxicab distance function.

인천시 택시사고율이 전국에서 가장 높기 때문에 인천택시사고의 특성분석과 대책을 마련하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 택시사업체, 택시기사, 도로현황, 보험제도 등을 설문조사, 현장조사, 방문조사방법을 통하여 분석하였다. 설문조사결과 상용근로자의 요인이 안전에 좋은 영향을 가져올 것으로 기대되는 등의 13개 시사점을 발견하였고, 도로의 구조적 문제점을 세부적으로 지적하였으며, 주행거리 종량제와 같은 보험제도 개선안을 제시하였다. 그리고 버스전용차로의 택시이용에 관한 정부의 배려가 현재 악화되어 있는 택시의 운영실태를 개선할 것으로 보며, 결국 택시사고의 감소로 이어질 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, we propose a taxi safety support system using the beacon device to reduce the anxiety and increase the satisfaction of taxi passengers. At first, we design a USB-type low power beacon device that can be easily installed inside a taxi and propose a distance and estimation method using beacon signal strength. Mobile applications for passengers and drivers based on beacon signals are developed. The server operation program for situation recognition, position estimation, risk management and notification of the taxi passenger is also developed. An accident risk management method is proposed using the recognition of getting on and off of the taxi passenger. The proposed methods are verified for applicability and usefulness through practical experiments.

우리나라 택시의 경우, 이용측면에서나 수송분담률측면에서 볼 때 대중교통에 가까운 역할을 담당하고 있다고 할 수 있으나, 적정 택시대수를 산정하는 모형이 정립되지 않아 택시증차규모 결정시 이해관계자들의 마찰로 사회적 물의를 일으키며 이를 조정하는데 행정력이 낭비되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 택시 이용자와 업체 그리고 운전기사의 입장이 반영된 적정 실차율, 교통여건, 이용객수의 변화 들을 고려한 중소도시에서의 택시 증차대수 산정을 위한 합리적 기준이 제시되었으며 현재의 운행기록에 의한 거기기준실차율조사의 문제점을 개선한 새로운 택시 실차율 조사방법의 적용성이 검토되었다. 새로운 실차율 조사방법으로 부도심상의 주요 가로를 통과하는 택시에 대한 차량기준실차율을 조사하여 종래의 운전자의 운행기록표에 의한 거리기준 실차율과 비교하였다. 두 방법에 의한 실차율이 매우 근사한 값을 보였으며 통계적 검정에서도 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 차량기준방법에 의한 실차율조사로 조사비용을 줄이고 자료의 신뢰성을 높일수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper presents a data analysis method for the taxi telematics system which generates a greate deal of location history data. By the record consist of the basic GPS receiver-generated fields, device-added fields such as taxi operation status, and framework-attached fields such as matched link Identifier and position ratio in a link, each taxi can be represented by a state diagram. The transition and the state definition enable us to efficiently extract such information as pick-up time, pick-up distance, dispatch time, and dispatch distance. The analysis result can help to verify the efficiency of a specific taxi dispatch algorithm, while the analysis framework can invite a new challenging service including future traffic estimation, trajectory clustering, and so on.

The ONE simulator has been used the tool for the DTN routing protocols. A movement model on DTN characteristic importantly affects to the simulation results of routing protocols. Especially, the WDM model provides the real similar situation such as commuting using vehicles, movements to a meeting point in office hours, activities after work, and etc. Our previous work proposed a taxi movement model in the WDM model. However, there is a difference between the real situations and the proposed model in finding a passenger. In this paper, we proposed an advanced taxi movement model with a taxi driver's locality and visibility range in order to configurate the real similar situation. And we analyze the difference between the previous model and the proposed model.

We consider how a pre-service teacher can understand and utilize various concepts of Euclidean geometry by learning conic sections using mathematical definitions in non-Euclidean geometry. In a third-grade class of D University, we used mathematical definitions to demonstrate that learning conic sections in non-Euclidean space, such as taxicab geometry and Minkowski distance space, can aid pre-service teachers by enhancing their ability to acquire and accept new geometric concepts. As a result, learning conic sections using mathematical definitions in taxicab geometry and Minkowski distance space is expected to contribute to enhancing the education of pre-service teachers for Euclidean geometry expertise by fostering creative and flexible thinking.

This paper explores key factors affecting taxi travel using global positioning system(GPS) data in Seoul, Korea, considering spatial dependence. We first analyzed the travel characteristics of taxis such as average travel time, average travel distance, and spatial distribution of taxi trips according to the time of the day and the day of the week. As a result, it is found that the most taxi trips were generated during the morning peak time (8 a.m. to 9 a.m.) and after the midnight (until 1 a.m.) on weekdays. The average travel distance and travel time for taxi trips were 5.9 km and 13 minutes, respectively. This implies that taxis are mainly used for short-distance travel and as an alternative to public transit after midnight in a large city. In addition, we identified that taxi trips were spatially correlated at the traffic analysis zone(TAZ) level through the Moran's I test. Thus, spatial regression models (spatial-lagged and spatial-error models) for taxi trips were developed, accounting for socio-demographics (such as the number of households, the number of elderly people, female ratio to the total population, and the number of vehicles), transportation services (such as the number of subway stations and bus stops), and land-use characteristics (such as population density, employment density, and residential areas) as explanatory variables. The model results indicate that these variables are significantly associated with taxi trips.
