This is the Tottenham Court road station in London. Visible information: bicycles near the station; pedestrian flow; traffic flow; evening newspaper stand; building cranes; materials and style of facades. Invisible info: 1) amount of interchanges bike-tube 2) pedestrian movement patterns across the square Knowledge contribution. By knowing the amount of joint trips bike+tube we can predict the number of trips if we improve the service. If this amount satisfies us, we make these improvements. For example, add more bike racks of introduce new tariff for interchanges. Thus, we add better service to the transportation system which benefits all.
