Transport Consulting Services

MobyX combines deep transport domain knowledge with advanced data tools to support authorities, consultancies, and research teams in their transport planning, data collection, and impact assessment work.

What We Offer

Travel and Mobility Surveys

We design, deploy, and analyse travel and activity surveys using our own smartphone-based MobyApp platform. Services include:

  • Study design and sampling strategy for population-level or targeted surveys
  • Multi-day GPS-based travel diary collection with automatic trip detection and mode classification
  • Questionnaire integration (via LimeSurvey) for stated preference, attitudes, and demographics
  • Data processing and delivery in GDPR-compliant, analysis-ready formats
  • Statistical reporting and visualisation of travel behaviour patterns

Transport Modelling and Simulation

Our modelling team applies activity-based and multi-scale transport simulation to support urban planning and policy evaluation using HarmonyMS:

  • Scenario analysis for transport interventions — new routes, pricing, shared mobility services, land use changes
  • Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) support and evidence base development
  • Integration of existing models (PTV VISUM, Aimsun) into a unified planning framework
  • Key Performance Indicator reporting across mobility, environment, economy, and equity dimensions
  • Impact assessment for connected and automated mobility (CCAM) and new mobility services

Market Research

Beyond transport planning, MobyApp's flexible survey architecture supports market research in any sector where understanding how people move, spend time, and make decisions is valuable:

  • Retail and real estate — understanding catchment areas and customer travel patterns
  • Healthcare — measuring active travel and physical activity levels in populations
  • Logistics — origin-destination data for freight and last-mile delivery planning
  • Insurance — telematics-style data collection for mobility profiling

EU Research Project Participation

MobyX has extensive experience as a technology partner in Horizon Europe and H2020 research consortia, contributing:

  • Software development and platform deployment (MobyApp, HarmonyMS, CitizenApp)
  • Work package leadership for data collection, tool development, and impact assessment
  • Living Lab coordination and citizen engagement
  • Dissemination and exploitation of research outputs

Current and past projects include HARMONY, FRONTIER, SPINE, SUM, MOVE2CCAM, GREEN-LOG, and MobiNexus.

Who We Work With

Our consulting services are used by:

  • City authorities and metropolitan planning bodies — SUMP development, demand modelling, citizen engagement
  • Public transport operators — network analysis, demand forecasting, service impact evaluation
  • Transport and urban planning consultancies — data collection, modelling support, project delivery
  • Research institutions and universities — travel behaviour studies, EU project collaboration
  • Private sector — market research, logistics planning, mobility programme evaluation

Our Expertise

MobyX was founded in 2018 by transport researchers with backgrounds in activity-based modelling, travel behaviour research, and mobility data science. Our scientific advisory board includes leading academics in transport modelling and software engineering.

Our work is grounded in peer-reviewed research and validated through real deployments across Europe — from the Municipality of Turin to Oxfordshire County Council to metropolitan planning authorities in Greece, Poland, Belgium, and beyond.
