  1. Florida Model Task Force …….the Teamwork Approach A Presentation to the MPOAC By Dennis Hooker Model Task Force Tri-Chair

  2. Florida had 15 Urban Areas in 1980 • MPO Planning • 15 Urban plans Supported by: 15 Urban models …All Models Different

  3. 25 Urban Areas in 1990 • MPO Planning • 25 Urban plans Supported by: 25 Urban models …Florida Standard Model

  4. 7 New-Urban Areas have Models • MPO Planning • 25 Urban plans • 7 New-Urban plans Supported by: 25 Urban models 7 New-Urban models

  5. Models are Joined to Support Regional Planning Orlando 3 Treasure Coast Tampa Bay Southwest Southeast • MPO Planning • 25 Urban plans • 7 New-Urban plans • Regional Planning North Central Supported by: 25 Urban models 7 New-Urban models 6 Regional models

  6. MPOs MODEL FLEXIBILITY AND……….. The structure of the Florida Standard Model provides the flexibility for each MPO to customize for their respective area and particular application

  7. Florida also has a Statewide Model • MPO Planning • 25 Urban plans • 7 New-Urban plans • Regional Planning • Statewide Planning Supported by: 25 urban models 7 New-Urban models 6 Regional models 1 Statewide model

  8. Model Validation MPO Plan Updates Interstate Master Plans FIHS Action Plans PD&E Studies Final Design Studies Interchange Justification Reports Comprehensive Plans DRIs Concurrency Applications Campus Master Plans Toll Feasibility Studies Congestion Management Systems Uses of the Florida Standard Model

  9. WHO SUPPORTS ALL THESE MODELS? 7 New-Urban models 25 urban models 6 Regionalmodels 1 Statewide model FLORIDA MODEL TASK FORCE AND … MPOs are active members !!

  10. Florida Model Task Force • Mission – To advance model development and applications to serve the transportation planning needs of the Department and local governments. • Operates in a responsive, consistent, and credible manner to establish standardized and uniform modeling practices.

  11. Florida Model Task Force Leadership • MPO Planning and Modeling – Dennis Hooker, Metroplan Orlando • Regional Planning and Modeling – Daniel Lamb, FDOT District 7 • District Planning and Modeling – Shi-Chiang Li, FDOT District 4

  12. Florida Model Task Force Voting Members • 25 MPOs • 8 FDOT Districts • 4 Florida Standard Model User’s Groups • Florida Transit Agencies • Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) • Other State Agencies – DCA, DEP

  13. March 2001 Meeting MPOs, Counties, Cities, FDOT, Transit Agencies, FHWA, Consultants, and Universities 72 Attending

  14. Model Task Force Subcommittees • Highway Network (HNET) – What roads are important for auto, trucks, and transit to use • Freight Planning/Modeling – Safe and efficient movements of goods and products • Transit Modeling – Public Transportation

  15. Model Task Force Subcommittees • Trip Generation – How many trips are made • Geographic Information System (GIS) – Mapping the transportation systems using state-of-the-art Geographic Information Systems • Transportation Land Use – Identify growth and development • Trip Distribution – Where did these trips go

  16. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Freight Subcommittee Urban Freight Modeling Methodology Modeling Truck Trips in Urban Areas

  17. Statewide Intermodal Highway Freight Model On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Freight Subcommittee Taking Care of Long Distance Freight Trips and Intermodal Connectors

  18. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Trip Generation Subcommittee Life-Style Trip Generation Taking Care of :Snow Birds,Baby Boomers,Generation X …

  19. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Transit Subcommittee Generalized Nested Logit Model Calibrating Transit Models with Sand(Florida)instead of Snow (Minnesota)

  20. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Transit Subcommittee Time-of-Day Modeling One Step Aheadof the Federal Travel Model Improvement Program (TMIP) ( We Think !)

  21. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Trip Distribution Subcommittee Alternative Trip Distribution Methodology “Looking for a Better Way”

  22. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) GIS Subcommittee GIS Transportation Data Integration Applying GIS Technology to Networks

  23. On-Going Model Task Force (MTF) Land Use Subcommittee Land Use Transportation Integration Identifying Equilibrium of Land Use and Transportation Investments

  24. Integration of Innovative Modeling Methodologies into Florida Standard Model GoodBetterBest

  25. How is the Model Task Force Organized CENTRALOFFICE Click here for decentralization 5 MPOs District 1 2 MPOs District 2 4 MPOs District 3 5 MPOs District 4 CENTRALOFFICE 4 MPOs District 5 1 MPO District 6 4 MPOs District 7

  26. FDOT Central Office is a non-voting member, what is their role? • Develops new modeling methodologies • Maintains the Florida Standard Model • Provides technical modeling support • Manages research projects • Provides Model Task Force technical and administrative support • Offers training workshops

  27. The Florida Standard Model Toolbox • FSUTMS – Modeling Software • Visual Planning Environment (VIPER) – Network Editor • Urban Land Use Allocation Model (ULAM) – Land Use Allocation Software • GIS-TM (GIS for Transportation Modeling) – The Bridge between FSUTMS and GIS

  28. Training Workshops Florida Standard Model - FSUTMS • Basic • Calibration • DRI • Special Update • Basic Transit • Advanced Transit • Freight • GIS/TM • Applications Conference
