The document summarizes the CyclePhilly project, which developed a smartphone app and website to track bicycle trips in the Philadelphia region. The app collects GPS data to better understand cycling routes and movements. Since May 2014, it has recorded over 12,000 trips made by around 300 riders. The data is being shared with city partners to inform bike infrastructure planning and studies.
