Southern Minnesota Rural Transit Origin, Destination, and Reservation Data (The ODR Data)

The ODR data provides detailed observations of six Southern Minnesota Transit Agencies' trip reservations and actual trips over two one-week periods, spanning both pre- and post-MaaS deployment phases. The collected features for the reservation-based services — demand-responsive transits, some ADA paratransits, and route deviations — included the following: date and time of phone call (ride requests) received or reservation reception time (RRT or call-in time), the request’s intended trip date, preferred departure time (PDT), scheduled departure time (SDT), actual pick-up time (APT), actual drop-off time (ADT), origin destination (OD), fare type (cash, token, etc.), service type (paratransit, student, etc.), and some information on trip cancellations. On the other hand, the collected features for the fixed route buses include the number of boarding and alighting activities for each bus stop and the inferred timestamps. Some measures were taken to mask sensitive information.
