Estimation of Station Catchment Area for Commuters by Use of Virtual Time-consumption

Year: 1984

Type: article

Abstract: Generalized Departure Time is a response function of travellers who are appointed the place and time for arrival, and GDT gives their departure time as a function of the operational properties of transit systems. Virtual Time Consumption, the time interval from departure time to appointed arrival time, is obtained as a probabilistic quantity by the application of this concept to commuters behavior. This paper describes that station catchment area, i. e. distribution of commuters who use the station, is obtained by the propababilistic comparison of VTCs calculated for respective routes via available stations.
