Abstract:Transportation planning relies extensively on software that can simulate and predict travel behavior in response to alternative transportation networks. However, different software packages view traffic at different scales. Some programs are based on the average, large-scale behavior of many vehicles (macroscopic resolution), while others simulate the small-scale, individual behavior of vehicles in a traffic flow (microscopic resolution). Each approach has its advantages. Advances in computer modeling and improved data acquisition make it possible to bring these modeling approaches together, producing more powerful and useful multiple resolution modeling (MRM) tools. The need for these improved planning tools is increased by new and more complex transportation solutions.
