Transportation Planning: Travel Demand Modeling Forecast: Model Conversion from TransCAD to Cube Voyager
The key to develop an accurate, reusable, and representative transportation demand model requires extensive planning prior to beginning any coding. After all, the selection of which transportation software application to deploy the transportation demand model will greatly affect the outcome of the run. For example, when applying/using the same modeling approach on transportation demand forecasting, it can be expected that two different model applications provide comparable results. However, one model application could take one tenth of the run time of the other. Run time duration is one of the many factors transportation professionals should consider. The difference is not only a matter of computer time — as the run requires professional monitoring that, in turn, transfers directly to cost. When evaluating applications, one should consider factors such as ease of maintenance and output information along with runtime duration. It may be even beneficial to convert the model to a new platform. Despite the initial investments needed to convert or redevelop transportation model, the benefits do add up expeditiously. This paper will study the reasons behind the decision of converting the Transportation Demand Forecast Model from TransCAD to the Cube software package. Lastly, the pros and cons of two different applications will be compared and analyzed.
