Turning Model Data into Clear and Understandable Results

John Stevens, Jonathan Avner, and Paul Hershkowitz of Wilbur Smith AssociateswithWalter Steinvorth, and Michael Fazio of UDOT

STATEWIDE MODEL INFLUENCE

AREASSlide2

The ProblemIn general people d

on’t think in terms of VMT, VHTHow can model data be displayed in a way that makes sense for the public and or decision makers?Slide3

Some Utah IssuesNeed to look at certain rural subareas

and the trade-offs between different scenariosWant to be able to effectively communicate to the non-transportation professionalsSlide4

Question 1 – look at sub areasWe created the concept of influence areas, and generated reports for the specific rural areas we had questions aboutSlide5

Mobility IndexIndex MeasuresDelay

Time to workTime to Urban AreasAverage SpeedCongested Lane Miles

User Defined Weights

All compared to full build out conditionsSlide6

ProcessSlide7

We then created some simple scripts to compare the different network performances in these areas

Some of the Elements Include:Baseline of Trip Density

Indication of Project Location

Percentage Change in Volume

And a

M

obility IndexSlide8

So WhatProvides Visual Representation of Model DataAllows for Comparison between Scenarios

Raises the level of the discussionInstead of what, or how, we move to why, for what purpose, what are the goalsSlide9

My Question – But what about the people Focus on improving system

performanceWhat does it mean to the populationSlide10

Dynamic Influence AreasAggregated the modeled AADT difference between a scenario and the baseline to the TAZ levelPresent

the change in terms of the population and jobs that will see a difference due to any projectsAlso works as a diagnostic tool to determine synergistic effects of projectsSlide11
Slide12

SummaryStandardized and flexible system for evaluationVisual communication for comparing different

scenariosPutting the effects of projects in terms that the general population can understandUser generated weighting/prioritiesChanges the tone of the discussionSlide13

Future ApplicationsThis can be used for series or individual projects, small or large areasTake it to the cloud
