... 64 Integrated Transportation and Land Use Models activitysim/) is another open-source framework for activity-based models, as is VisionEval (https://gregorbj.github.io/VisionEval/)
From page 65...
... Conclusions 65 were asked to model the effect of autonomous vehicles, despite the fact that this scenario was not even considered possible when many of these models were built. Microsimulation has the promise to facilitate flexible adjustments of the model to future (and currently unknown)
From page 66...
... 66 Integrated Transportation and Land Use Models Microsimulation also comes with some additional costs. Microsimulation models have the tendency to result in longer runtimes.
From page 67...
... Conclusions 67 effort initially than this manual disaggregation, the land use model provides a long-term strategy that makes preparation of socioeconomic data for the transport model repeatable, transparent and -- most importantly -- sensitive to alternative scenarios. Developer Working with the model developer is key.
From page 68...
... 68 Integrated Transportation and Land Use Models the possibility to revise or extend the model to their own needs. This is particularly true if users become savvier in programming and wish to work with the model code themselves.
From page 69...
... Conclusions 69 the past, such as the year 2000, and run the model until today. If population and employment numbers of today match the model results, the model is assumed to be sufficiently validated.
From page 70...
... 70 Integrated Transportation and Land Use Models would not be very useful as it poorly reflects reality. By identifying the parts of the model that perform the poorest and fixing those parts first, the overall model will gradually improve and soon be useful for at least simple scenario analysis.
