Abstract
Comprehending the mobility of entities in urban environments is crucial for developing and maintaining efficient and livable cities. This survey presents fundamental concepts, methods, and challenges related to knowledge discovery from urban trajectory data, including data acquisition, preprocessing, mining, and practical applications. Unlike previous studies, our survey offers a holistic and integrated view of these steps, ensuring that each stage is optimized to contribute to the overall performance of the mobility knowledge discovery process. Moreover, we identify operational and technical challenges, discussing potential future directions that can unlock new opportunities and advancements in this field.
This paper conducts extensive exploratory analysis, develops a Z-score anomaly detection method capable of capturing event-driven disruptions, and designs a regression model achieving a regional-scale MAPE around 10% in inbound-flow forecasting.

Cascading urban disruptions, from routine roadworks to regional floods, affect mobility in ways that cut across employment, health services, and economic productivity. Yet no standardised methodology exists to synthesise heterogeneous disruption data across scales for sustainable city planning. This paper develops and...
