Abstract
This series of working papers presents the ongoing analysis of the
mobility behaviour in Switzerland during the period of special measures
to combat the Corona virus. A sample of over 1200 participants was
recruited from a previous GPS-based mobility study, MOBIS. A 4 week
baseline period is therefore available for each participant from the
second half of 2019, as well as socio-economic variables. Mobility
indicators considered include modal splits, hourly counts, average daily
distances, activity spaces and daily-radius. First results indicate
drastic changes in mobility behaviour, with identifiable differences
between socio-economic groups. The analysis continues to be updated as
the situation progresses
