The paper presents the use of ArcGIS in the Transtools Transport Model, Transtools, created by an international consortium for the European Commission. The model describe passenger as well as freight transport in Europe with all medium and long distance modes (cars, vans, trucks, train, inland waterways, ships and air transport). ArcGIS was not only used for combining, improving and quality control of data, but by using the Geoprocessing Framework also as the backbone for the model complex itself. This includes a regional economic model, freight demand and trade models, a freight logistic model, passenger demand modeling, an airport choice sub-model, network assignment models for the different modes, and impact models for economics, safety, environment, etc. Covering the entire Europe, the model is most likely the largest transport model ever built in terms of number of countries, population and area being modeled. It is also one of very few models, which both describe freight and passenger transport.
