R&D at Transport for Cairo explores how open-source technologies can be applied in service of sustainable mobility solutions for emerging cities
While technical skills are foundational to a solid engineering team, the ability to communicate complex topics in writing is worth its weight in gold.
R&D@TfC is a platform designed for our technical team to share their work and shed light on the various challenges we face in the context of informal transit mapping in the Global South.
Travel in African cities today is dominated by informal transportation systems. They harm the environment, take advantage of transport workers and provide a sub-optimal user experience and poor accessibility. Our mission is to transform urban mobility towards a more sustainable future; with transparent, reproducible research, and by leveraging emerging technologies to collect, analyze, and produce high-quality data.
