Abstract

Since late 2013 German petrol stations have to report their prices to a register at the German Federal Cartel Office in real-time. An extract of these data was analyzed regarding local reactionary pricing behaviour between competitors. Typical pricing patterns were found per station and brand. Based on the hypothesis that pricing not fitting these patterns might induce reactions at the observant competitors, analysis regarding stations' irregular pricing and subsequent pricing reactions of their competitors was performed. For this purpose PostgreSQL/PostGIS (data management and calculations), Leaflet (maps) and various D3-based libraries (diagrams) were used to develop two web-based visual analytics tool prototypes.
