摘要: The ability to visualize data has grown immensely as the speed and functionality of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have increased. Now, with modeling software and GIS, planners are able to view a prediction of the future traffic demands in their jurisdiction. With the creation of a streamlined interfacing program that seamlessly connects the modeling software and the GIS package, planners can spend less time computing and more time assessing needs. The interface also provides analytical tools to assist the user in validation and assessment of the traffic model, all of which are executed in a GIS environment. Tools such as the shortest path through the network, time radius from a zone or node, traffic origins and destinations from a select link, and screenline validation have all been completely automated. Through the use of pull-down menus and mouse clicks, activities that were previously time consuming events have become streamlined computer tasks, taking only a fraction of the original time.
