Stimulating or frustrating research ? Transport geography and (un)available data

Abstract

This paper addresses the concern of data in line with transport geography. Focusing mainly on data availability, it highlights how data on both transport and spaces are important to transport geography. More and more data are becoming available on infrastructures and scheduled services, although often expensive, and on spaces. In contrast, non-scheduled services, freight transport and the demand remain or are becoming largely unknown. This opens and closes doors to transport geographers, paradoxically at the time when post-modernist postures tend to despise figures.
