November 9 Webinar Registration Open
Registration is now open for the November 9 webinar: Dynamic Traffic Assignment #3: No Sweat, a More Detailed Look at DTA (Part 1). Our presenters for this third of four sessions are Jeff Shelton, Texas Transportation Institute and David Roden, AECOM.
Mr. Shelton will discuss: Multi-Resolution Model Integration - Why is it Important and How to Make it Work? This presentation is aimed at providing insights into model integration at different levels of resolution by providing practical solutions to various transportation studies. Tools used to integrate simulation models, calibration methods, and consistency issues will be addressed using case studies from El Paso, TX.
Mr. Roden will discuss: Implementing DTA for the White House Area Transportation Study. The presentation will focus on developing and calibrating dynamic network assignments as part of the White House Area Transportation Study in downtown Washington D.C. Issues related to converting and refining supply and demand data from traditional travel models, adding temporal sensitivities and traffic controls, and achieving dynamic user equilibrium and network stability within a multi-modal environment will be discussed.
