TRB Webinar: Modeling Long-Distance Intercity Travel for Sustainable Global Travel
181063

TRB Webinar: Modeling Long-Distance Intercity Travel for Sustainable Global Travel

The majority of travel demand models are derived from daily home- and work-based travel. But modeling intercity travel is also important. TRB hosted a webinar on Monday, September 21, 2020 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern that discussed long-distance intercity travel models from Vermont, Florida, and Ontario. These models use integrated air and surface mode choice, social media data, and activity-based methods. Presenters explained how addressing the economic, environmental, and social equity issues will help create a sustainable global transportation system, and how to develop a travel demand modeling framework that accurately represents this data.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Travel Behavior and Values.

The slides are available. Contact Reggie Gillum for a copy of the recorded webinar. 

Webinar agenda and presenters

  1. An overview of long-distance travel modeling in the United States: Lisa Aultman-Hall, University of Vermont
  2. Developing integrated intercity models of air versus highway mode choice: Jeffrey LaMondia, Auburn University
  3. Social media data for an agent-based long-distance model for Ontario, Canada: Rolf Moeckel, Technical University of Munich
  4. Development of a long-distance travel model for corridor planning in Florida: Maren Outwater, RSG Inc.
  5. Question and answer session: Moderated by Lisa Aultman-Hall, University of Vermont

The first 90 minutes of the webinar will be for presentations and the final 30 minutes will be reserved for audience questions.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

1. Identify the traditional barriers to long-distance data collection and how new data sources can fill the gap
2. Discuss how new modeling techniques have facilitated new types of intercity travel choice models
3. List the agencies and places that have developed new models of long-distance travel
