Mobility in Germany

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The mobility in Germany (MiD) is a nationwide survey of households to their everyday travel behavior on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Transport and digital infrastructure (BMVI) . It is carried out approximately every five years. As in 2002 and 2008, the last survey was carried out by the market and social research institute infas in 2016/17 . The results have been available since 2018.

Similar surveys took place in 1976, 1982 and 1989 under the name "KONTIV" (continuous survey on traffic behavior ). The data collected in these studies serve both as a basis for traffic planning in the Federal Republic of Germany and for scientific studies on everyday mobility .

Goal setting

The main task of the study is to obtain representative and reliable information on the socio-demographics of people and households and their everyday traffic (e.g. journeys by purpose and type of transport) for a whole year. Weighted and extrapolated, it serves as a framework and supplement for other traffic surveys, such as the traffic surveys in individual cities (e.g. system of representative traffic surveys (SrV) or the German Mobility Panel (MOP) ).

The Mobility in Germany study also provides up-to-date data on important factors influencing mobility and forms the basis for transport models. It is important for traffic planning, research and the scientific interest and provides the quantitative background information for political decisions. For the MiD carried out in 2008, the results have been available since August 2009 and the reports since February 2010.

Elevation Design

For the survey, a sample is used in a triple-frame approach from population registration, landline and mobile phone samples . In the first step, a household questionnaire is collected for each household, which records the household members, their socio-demographics and mobility equipment. In a second step, each household member logs the trips they have made for a given reference date. This key date survey covers a whole year, so that seasonal fluctuations in mobility are also recorded. The survey takes place using a mix of methods consisting of telephone, written / postal and online interviews. It starts at the end of May 2016 and will be carried out over a calendar year until June 2017.

Regional clients for mobility in Germany 2016/17

A special feature of the MiD is the possibility of regionally increasing the survey. The study is a joint project of the BMVI and numerous regional partners. The study thus not only provides results for the whole of Germany, but also for federal states and individual regions.

A total of over 135,000 households were surveyed between April 2016 and May 2017. Of these, 30,000 are assigned to the BMVI. Over 100,000 interviews are funded by the regional partners.
