Abstract: The Origin-Destination (OD) matrix is important in describing transportation in a region. This matrix has information on the travel and transportation made between different zones of a region. The OD matrix can be estimated using traffic counts on links in the transport network and other available information. This information on the travel is often contained in a "target OD matrix. The target OD matrix may be an old (probably outdated) matrix or a result from a sample survey. From these two data sources various approaches to estimating an OD matrix has been developed and tested. This survey provides a survey of generic approaches and an annotated bibliography of some individual contributions. Some models and methods are in another paper tested in medium sized applications in a congested region. Keywords: Estimation of OD matrix, OD matrix estimation using traffic counts. -- iii -- Acknowledgments I gratefully acknowledge my supervisors, Professor Lars Lundqvist, KTH, and Professor J...
