Transit network “big data” collecting and processing and bi-directional communication between transit travellers and info centres are emerging as two factors which could improve both transit network planning and design and short-term forecasting of network states for transit operations control and traveller information provision. Several methodological issues connected to the development of models for real-time transit network simulation and forecasting of vehicle occupancy and crowding degree, for supporting such activities, are analysed in this chapter. The main issues concern real-time transit system modelling, dynamic real-time strategy-based path choice and assignment models, individual path choice modelling and, finally, estimation of OD flows and aggregate calibration of model parameters through collected data.

Abstract
Transit network “big data” collecting and processing and bi-directional communication between transit travellers and info centres are emerging as two factors which could improve both transit network planning and design and short-term forecasting of network states for transit operations control and traveller information provision. Several methodological issues connected to the development of models for real-time transit network simulation and forecasting of vehicle occupancy and crowding degree, for supporting such activities, are analysed in this chapter. The main issues concern real-time transit system modelling, dynamic real-time strategy-based path choice and assignment models, individual path choice modelling and, finally, estimation of OD flows and aggregate calibration of model parameters through collected data.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
