Advanced Modeling Practice at CMAP Kermit Wies October 2014
Plan for Advanced Modeling at CMAP • Policy priorities • Data needs • Computing environment Freight Highway Pricing Transit Modernization
Advanced Freight Model Development • GO TO 2040 Freight Chapter • National and Regional Policy • Economic development • Infrastructure • Three-tiered freight analysis • Macro = Economic choice • Meso = Supply chain and logistics • Micro = Network operations • Implementation strategy • Microsimulation • Agent-based
Progress-to-date • Two rounds of mesoscale development • Microsimulates commodity flows and predicts distribution channels to, from and through the CMAP region. Also assembles local truck tours. • Implemented at CMAP for scenario and project tests cmap.illinois.gov/catmug
Two rounds of development • UIC Developed original FAME model at national level • Designed the model and prepared the original code in SAS • Extended the design and rewrote the code in R
Mesoscale Model: step by step cmap.illinois.gov/catmug
CMAP Implementation • Testing model execution • Understanding new concepts • Linking to standard procedures • Results Validation
Data Resources • Basic demonstration uses currently available data: • Freight Analysis Framework • County Business Patterns • Make-Use Tables • Regional Model Data • National Freight Networks • Parameter estimation: • heuristic • empirical
Recent Applications • Tour Length • Tonnage Comparison • Circle Interchange
Forecasting • Agent-based Economic Extension • External infrastructure decisions, economic change, policy actions • Combined effect of independent procurement and logistics business decisions
Activity-Based Models • Application of an Activity-Based Model for Highway Pricing Studies in Chicago • Transit Beyond Travel Time and Cost • Network Microsimulation Extension to Activity-Based Travel Model
