Abstract:FSUTMS training is a major activity of the Systems Planning Office of the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT). The training aims to establish and maintain quality assurance for consistent
statewide modeling standards and provide up-to-date information on recent model enhancements.
FSUTMS training workshops have been conducted mainly with a lead instructor in a computer
laboratory setting at selected locations. The costs of conducting and attending these workshops are
sizable for both FDOT and the participants. This inevitably creates a limiting effect on the workshop
availability and participation. The objective of this project is to develop an online alternative of the
live version of the FSUTMS Comprehensive Modeling Workshop.
The workshop includes a total of 12 lessons. It provides an overview of the transportation planning
process, travel demand forecasting methodologies, and FSUTMS modules and data requirements. It
also covers hands-on experience on execution of the FSUTMS Powered by Cube software,
interpretation and creation of standard output results, and creation and editing of networks. This
report contains the complete voice-over scripts used in the online version of this workshop. The
workshop is hosted on the FSUTMSonline web portal together with other FSUTMS online
workshops, at this web address: http://www.fsutmsonline.net/online_training/index.html. Since the
exercise component of this workshop is presented in streaming videos, the scripts presented in this
report for the exercises at the end of each lesson are best used together with the videos.
