The paper presents a GeoAI framework that uses a variational autoencoder and a graph convolutional network to analyze high‑dimensional geospatial data for electric vehicle charging station location selection. By compressing EV usage, land‑use, population, and traffic attributes into a latent space, the model predicts suitable future station sites and identifies 27 new candidates in Bryan‑College Station, Texas. Two policy scenarios—maximizing geospatial similarity versus minimizing travel distance—demonstrate how different strategic objectives influence station placement outcomes.

The Traffic Assignment Problem is a fundamental but computationally expensive component of transportation planning. While Graph Neural Networks have emerged as fast, data-driven surrogates, their practical deployment is severely constrained by a spatial generalization gap.

The paper introduces a conditional variational autoencoder (CVAE) to generate synthetic electric vehicle (EV) charging sessions from real transaction-level data. It trains on engineered features such as plug‑in duration, charging duration, delivered energy, charging delay, and cyclical time‑of‑week, conditioning on day of week and managed charging status. Evaluation shows the synthetic data preserves key statistical properties and supports predictive modelling tasks via a Train‑on‑Synthetic‑Test‑on‑Real protocol.

SynthCharge is a parametric generator that creates diverse, feasibility‑screened instances of the electric vehicle routing problem with time windows (EVRPTW). It produces instances ranging from 5 to 100 customers (up to 500 in theory) with adaptive energy capacity scaling and range‑aware charging station placement, filtering out unsolvable cases via a fast feasibility screening process. This dynamic benchmarking infrastructure enables systematic evaluation of learning‑based routing and data‑driven approaches.

MoRA is a human‑centric geospatial representation learning framework that uses a large mobility graph as its backbone to fuse spatial tokenization, graph neural networks, and asymmetric contrastive learning. It aligns over 100 million points of interest, massive remote sensing imagery, and structured demographic data with a billion‑edge mobility graph, producing compact 128‑dimensional embeddings that capture socio‑economic context and functional roles of locations. On a benchmark of nine downstream social and economic prediction tasks, MoRA outperforms state‑of‑the‑art models by an average of 12.9% and demonstrates scaling behavior analogous to large language models.
