Popis: | Most modern activity-based travel demand models (ABMs) in practice and research do not fully capture the central idea that travel is derived from activities. The basic unit adopted in ABMs for travel analysis is the tour, which is borrowed largely from tour-based travel demand models. To a certain extent, this approach contradicts the basic idea of ABMs in which the unit for travel analysis is the activity. In reality, individuals plan to participate in various activities in a day, and the tours and corresponding trips emerge from activity participation, potential activity location, and activity sequence choices coupled with time and space constraints imposed by activities with relatively lower spatial and temporal flexibility. The model discussed in this paper is an effort to better mimic this decision-making process. This model is a part of the latest version of the coordinated travel and regional activity modeling platform (CT-RAMP) adopted for the Jerusalem, Israel, and Phoenix, Arizona, ABMs. |
