This repository contains the skeleton of the Analysis of Commuter Mobility and Public Transport Utilization in Agglomerate Communes of La Rochelle project. Due to the large size of the data files (Population Census, Complete folder of La Rochelle Communes, and Sirene database of companies and their establishments) and the R environment, they are not included in this repository. However, all the necessary code, smaller databases and scripts written for the project are available here.
