It seeks to illustrate how to use such model in the evaluation QOM among regions by applying this to the condition in Yamaga City, Japan.Evaluation results indicate that the transportation service level in this city will decrease and the inequality will expand in the future.Therefore, some policies were prepared and evaluated.Using the model, it was concluded that the policy that will encourage people to live in the city center and improve road will enhance QOM.
