Peter J.H.J. van der Waerden is a University Lecturer in the Department of Urban Planning and Transportation at Eindhoven University of Technology. His work focuses on sustainable urban mobility systems, transportation modeling, and public transport efficiency. He has been involved in projects such as the Urban Mobility Changemaker initiative (2022-2022) and OSCAR, exploring off-street parking solutions for carsharing. His research integrates choice experiments, spatial analysis, and environmental impact assessments to address urban challenges.

Van der Waerden has contributed to over 191 research outputs, including articles on light-rail transit environmental effects, cycling infrastructure innovations, and climate change adaptation strategies. He teaches courses like Big Data for Urban Analysis and Geographic Modeling, emphasizing data-driven approaches to urban development. His datasets include drone-based spatial analyses for 3D urban modeling. Recent work explores participatory urban planning methods and citizen engagement in climate resilience initiatives.

He actively participates in peer-review activities for journals like the Journal of Public Transportation and Journal of Cycling and Micromobility Research. Collaborations span institutions globally, addressing topics like parking system compliance, intersection design for cyclists, and multi-state supernetwork analysis for transport systems.
