An Automated Gradual Zoning Approach for large-scale Transport Models

Year: 2019

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Along with the advance of information technologies and open data availability, transport models have become more complex in the last years. However, the basic structure is often neglected in model design. Transport analysis zones which form the spatial base of a model are often drawn alongside administrative boundaries and remain untouched, while the model evolves. This paper presents an automated approach to design traffic analysis zones as first step of a model, taking into account the administrative structure and possible data availability dimensions. A quality control step is included into the model framework.
