Impact of Precipitation on NYC MTA Ridership

Analyzing the impact of weather on ridership

Jupyter Notebooks:

1. Turnstile Data: Create table with average Entries and Exits per station over time
2. Weather Data: Create table with appropriate precipitation data
3. Station Location: Create table with subway station locations
4. Merging Tables: Merging data wanted into one table
5. Data Analysis: Analyzing data.

Data:

1. Turnstile Data: Cumulative entry and exit values for every station in the MTA ecosystem.
2. Weather: Hourly precipitation totals
3. Station Location: CSV with subway locations.

Further Work

• Use Latitude/Longitude for more accurate precipitation impact assessment
• Create a prediction model to anticipate impact of precipitation on ridership
• Impact of Temperature on Ridership
