Your ITE Section has invited transportation modeling experts from around the world to San Jose, offering a FULL DAY of informative workshops. The program will feature the latest in transportation modeling technologies and research from the industry's leaders including information presented at the 2008 Meeting of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) in Washington, DC.
TITLE: Transportation Modeling Techniques
DATE: March 28, 2008
TIME: 8:45 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

BACKGROUND:
The traffic modeling process is an important component of the urban transportation planning process. The upcoming seminar will demonstrate transportation modeling tools available in many application areas including:
- travel demand forecasting methodologies,
- traffic impact studies,
- highway operations with the meso and micro simulations,
- level of service analysis at intersections,
- model calibrations/validations,
- transportation analysis tools for both road network and transit
operations,
- pedestrian simulation models,
- emergency evacuation planning,
- integration of models with GIS maps and
- ITS evaluations.
Real applications of macro planning models, dynamic models and micro-simulation models from around the world as well as from our own Bay Area will be featured in this workshop.
