Abstract
Contemporary smart mobility technology makes it possible to solve the problems of urban transport, improving quality of urban mobility, increasing availability of transport, and ensuring its efficiency. The objective of the study is to identify key trends of research on smart mobility in recent scientific sources. The author, using VOS Viewer program, carried out a bibliometric analysis of publications indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus databases and containing keywords related to smart urban mobility. Co-citations, cross-references, shared keywords, co-authorships have been analyzed for the entire set of selected publications. As a result, a map of links between publications in the field of smart mobility was built, defining existing relationships between keywords and authors in this area. Also, a map of clusters was built , which displays proximity of publications to each other. A cluster comprises a group of research closely related via research topics, authors, and keywords. Clustering of publications was conducted followed by identifying six clusters, each of which reflects single promising research area in the field of smart mobility. The results obtained make it possible to identify promising development trends for smart mobility through automated processing of a highquality array of publications. The results can be used by municipal officials, transportation business and academia to review and analyze emerging smart mobility technologies and to make informed urban transport planning decisions.
