Abstract:

After 30 years, the German Mobility Panel (MOP) has ceased data collection despite being considered a successful and benchmark-worthy survey about everyday travel. The article gives an overview of the survey's central ideas, designation, and design, some thoughts about the usefulness and applicability of the data, and explains why the survey has been terminated. It ends up with the experiences made with the MOP. Lastly, a synthesis based on the lessons learned is used to derive recommendations
that can help implement future longitudinal surveys.
