Implementation Framework and Development Trajectory of FEATHERS Activity-Based Simulation Platform

In order to facilitate the development of dynamic activity-based models for transport demand, the FEATHERS framework was developed. This framework suggests a four stage development trajectory for a smooth transition from the four-step models towards static activity based models in the short term and dynamic activity based models in the longer term. The development stages discussed in this paper range from an initial static activity-based model without traffic assignment to ultimately a dynamic activity-based model incorporating rescheduling, learning effects and traffic routing. To illustrate... Mehr ...
