Research and Development Program for Integrated Urban Models

Abstract

The case is presented for a new, coordinated research and development (R&D) program designed to improve significantly the operational state of practice in integrated urban modeling. First, the authors’ view of an “ideal” integrated urban modeling system is described. If developed, this modeling system should be capable of incorporating the best possible understanding of transportation and land use interactions and of addressing planning and analysis needs. Also discussed briefly are current operational modeling capabilities as related to the proposed ideal model. Finally, a multiyear R&D program that was designed to move current practice significantly toward the operationalization of the ideal model is detailed.
