This article presents the EBIS (e-Biking in Switzerland) study, including its methodology, the resulting dataset, and an initial descriptive analysis of the population surveyed. The EBIS study is a Switzerland-wide GPS-tracking study with the aim of investigating the scope of carbon savings in the transport sector due to e-biking. Participants consisted of cyclists and e-bikers across the French- and German-speaking regions of Switzerland. In addition to extensive GPS tracking, the study included a randomized controlled trial (RCT) on transport pricing’s role in substituting e-bike trips for car trips, a retrospective survey on mode shift, and a stated preference survey on cycling infrastructure preferences. We here report participant attrition and engagement rates and compare the EBIS population to the 2021 Swiss Mobility and Transport Microcensus (MTMC) in terms of socio-demographic characteristics and travel behavior. In doing so, we present a unique dataset of 3,940 participants, 324 thousand user-days of tracking data, and over half a million stages by bike or e-bike.

本文介绍了 EBIS（瑞士的电动自行车）研究，包括其方法、生成的数据集以及对调查人群的初步描述性分析。EBIS 研究是一项瑞士范围的 GPS 跟踪研究，旨在调查电动自行车对交通部门的碳减排范围。参与者包括来自瑞士法语和德语地区的自行车手和电动自行车手。除了广泛的 GPS 跟踪外，该研究还包括一项关于交通定价在用电动自行车代替汽车旅行中的作用的随机对照试验 （RCT）、一项关于模式转换的回顾性调查，以及一项关于自行车基础设施偏好的陈述偏好调查。我们在这里报告了参与者的流失率和参与率，并将 EBIS 人口与 2021 年瑞士移动和运输微型普查 （MTMC） 在社会人口特征和旅行行为方面进行了比较。在此过程中，我们提供了一个独特的数据集，其中包含 3,940 名参与者、324000 个用户日的跟踪数据，以及超过五十万个自行车或电动自行车阶段。
