+This repository contains the first version of QGIS Processing Trajectools plugin for the Trajectory Data / Travel Time Analysis Emerald, developed as part of T4.1 of WP4 within EMERALDS project. 
+The Trajectools plugin adds trajectory analysis algorithms to the QGIS Processing toolbox. 
+This README provides essential information for setting up this Emerald.

 ## Requirements
+Running these models requires QGIS (a popular open source geographic information system) with MovingPandas (a Python library for movement data analysis) and the QGIS Trajectools plugin.
 
 Trajectools requires [MovingPandas](https://github.com/movingpandas/movingpandas) >= 0.22.3 and optionally integrates [scikit-mobility](https://scikit-mobility.github.io/scikit-mobility/) (for privacy tests), [stonesoup](https://stonesoup.readthedocs.io/) (for smoothing), and [gtfs_functions](https://github.com/Bondify/gtfs_functions) (for GTFS data support).

 ## Examples
+The Trajectools plugin is used in EMERALDS Use Case 3 to analyze travel time on public transport network segments, as documented in [the corresponding repo](https://github.com/emeralds-horizon/UC3-traveltime-analytics).
 
 The individual Trajectools algorithms are flexible and modular and can therefore be used on a wide array on input datasets, including, for example, the open [Microsoft Geolife dataset](http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/b16d359d-d164-469e-9fd4-daa38f2b2e13/) a [sample](https://github.com/emeralds-horizon/trajectools-qgis/tree/main/sample_data) of which is included in the plugin repo:
