Abstract：Space-time behavior as a well-established construct in urban studies and planning has received increasing scholarly attention since being proposed in early 1970s. The studies of space-time behavior, facilitated by individual activity-travel data, have constituted an effective theoretical lens to decipher the associations between human behavior and geographical spaces. More recently, researchers have endeavored to inform policies and planning through analyses of space-time behavior data, as well as to generalize empirical findings into new discourses on how human behavior interacts with geographical spaces. These attempts necessitate an effort to collect large-sized and real-time data for realistic planning programs, as well as longitudinal data to validate causality between geographical spaces and human behavior. This paper presents a review of state-of-the-art of space-time behavior surveys. It articulates that beyond paper-based questionnaires as the most commonly used data collection method, the fast development of GPS tracking technologies in the recent decades has enabled collection of high-resolution data and realistic travelling trajectories. Also, space-time behavior surveys have increasingly expanded their focuses to subjective and socio-cultural aspects of human behavior, as well as social and environmental implications of space-time behavior. Through identifying the challenges and prospects confronting space-time behavior surveys, this paper highlights the needs to integrate space-time behavior surveys with big data and to conduct qualitative and longitudinal surveys in the future studies in order to facilitate planning applications and theory development. The review and prospects presented in this paper can also inform future studies of space-time behavior in Chinese cities.
