An Update to TMIP Transportation Modeling and Analysis Toolbox
We have
added three new reports to TMIP Transportation Modeling and Analysis Toolbox (the TMIP Toolbox):
- How-to:
Model Destination Choice
- Volume
1: Integrated ABM-DTA Methods to Model Impacts of Disruptive Technology on
the Regional Surface Transportation System - A Feasibility Study
- Volume
2: Model Impacts of Connected and Autonomous/Automated Vehicles (CAVs) and
Ride-Hailing with an Activity-Based Model (ABM) and Dynamic Traffic
Assignment (DTA)-An Experiment
The TMIP
Toolbox is available at https://tmip.org/library/toolbox.

TRB Special
Report 288 finds that "... there is no single approach to travel
forecasting or set of procedures that is "correct" for all
applications or all MPOs. Travel forecasting tools developed and used by an MPO
should be appropriate for the nature of the questions being posed by its
constituent jurisdictions and the types of analysis being conducted."
(METROPOLITAN TRAVEL FORECASTING: Current Practice and Future Direction,
Transportation Research Board, 2007, Page 3)
The
objective of the TMIP Transportation Modeling and Analysis Toolbox (the
Toolbox) is to provide access to a range of tools developed by TMIP to support
data driven, performance-based transportation planning incorporating principles
of risk management. The goal of the Toolbox is not to create a single - or even
a set of - ideal tools, but rather to provide processes, information, and
examples to encourage agencies to select the appropriate tools and methods
based on their analytical needs.
