Abstract
The Mobility Patterns in Cali dataset describes the data on the population distribution and mobility patterns of residents in Cali, Colombia. The population of Cali is 2.4x10^6 and the living areas are divided into 22 sub-populations. We constructed a mobility network between these 22 sub-populations based on their mobility patterns. This dataset provides significant underlying network support for relevant work on verifying the impact of population mobility on epidemic spread.
The first named "PobCali.txt" contains two columns which correspond to population (normalized to 1% of the real population) and patch ID. The second one, "netCali.txt" contains the OD matrices for Cali inhabitants. Note that it is a weighted directed network (Columns are Origin-Destination-Weight) and one can find self-loops meaning that people work in the same neighbourhood where they live. We construct the mobility network between the 22 sub-populations in the dataset based on their mobility patterns and represent it using an adjacency matrix W. The connection weight between sub-population i and sub-population j, which represents the mobility flow, is denoted by w_{ij}.
