摘要：	Data from large-scale travel survey databases, such as the Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (NPTS) and the National Household Travel Survey (NHTS), are often used to derive complex parameters for transportation modeling applications not originally targeted by the surveys. When situations demand complex data manipulation tasks, publicly available tools for the purpose do not obviate the need for data users to sift through entire databases and develop custom solutions. This paper presents a flexible methodology for developing custom database tools for cost-effectively deriving application-specific information from travel survey data. The seven-step methodology accounts for assessment of needs, verification of validity of travel survey data to the application, establishment of scientific justification, development of functional requirements of the system, development of data model, definition of processes, and development and testing of tools. To demonstrate the methodology, a case study involving derivation of locality-specific parameters for emission factor models from the NPTS and NHTS databases is presented. With the use of this methodology, a custom database application called Travel-Related Inputs Model for MOBILE6.x (TRIMM) was developed for this case study. The working mechanisms of TRIMM are illustrated. The methodology outlined, though specific to travel survey databases, is sufficiently generic to be used for developing custom tools to derive various modeling parameters from large transportation databases.
