Study Notes

Trip Area and Demand Modeling

  • Time is NOT a parameter utilized to detail the nature and extent of a given trip area.
  • The term used to define a unit of measurement for travel behavior involving movement from a single origin to a single destination is a trip.
  • One of the complicating factors in the demand modeling process is the variability of traveler behavior.
  • The purpose of demand modeling is to predict the number of trips that will be made under a given set of circumstances.
  • The number of trips, trip length, and travel mode must be first identified and quantified in demand modeling to ensure accurate results.
  • The parameters utilized in detailing the nature and extent of a given trip area include:
    • Trip length
    • Trip purpose
    • Travel mode
    • Time of day
    • Day of week
