Estimation of Travel Demand Flows

  • Chapter
Transportation Systems Engineering: Theory and Methods

Part of the book series: Applied Optimization ((APOP,volume 49))

Abstract

Analysis and design of transportation systems require, respectively, the estimation of present demand and the forecasting of (hypothetical) future demand. These can be obtained by using different sources of information and statistical procedures.
