Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based

Tour Model

TRB Transportation Planning Application

Conference

May 8, 2007

Background for Modeling

• Long Range Land Use “Blueprint”– “4 D’s” emphasis– Regionally adopted– In process of developing first

Blueprint transportation plan

• Place3s Land Use Scenario/Analysis Tool– “Parcel” level data– Place type

Page 3: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Background for Modeling (cont’d)

• Limitations of zone-based model– Many 4 D’s factors missed by zone

aggregation

• Developed SACSIM (Activity-Based Tour Model)– Familiar model (similar to SF, others)– Based on parcel-level land use data– Motorized Networks still TAZ-based

for assignment– Skims combine TAZ skims and direct

parcel/point proximity measures

Types of Parcel/Point Data Files

• Place3s “Parcel” Files– Place Type, Acres– # Dwellings– # Jobs

• Schools– K12 (all types)– College/University

• 4+ year colleges• Community colleges

• Paid Off-Street Parking– # Spaces– $ / day, $ / hour

Page 5: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Types of Parcel/Point Data Files (cont’d)

• Street Pattern– Intersection points by type– Types = 1, 3, 4+ legs / node

• Transit stations/stops– LRT, rail stations– Fixed route bus stops– Park-and-ride facilities

Page 6: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Parcel/Point Data Formulations

• Point values– # of dwellings, jobs, school

enrollments, etc. at the parcel/point

• Buffered point values– # of dwellings, jobs, etc. within ¼

or ½ mile of parcel

Page 7: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Strategies for Developing Datasets

• Yield Estimation for Land Use Scenario– Qi = acrespt x yieldi

– Used for both “base year” (2005) and future year dataset

– Future year land use scenarios developed in Place3s

• Inventory + Change– Base year points from inventory– Future year change from other

source (Place3s, travel model networks, etc.)

Page 8: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Examples of Inventory+Change

Approach• Street Pattern / Intersection

Density– Use actual GIS intersection

points for 2005– For future year, use Place3s

comparisons between 2005 and future year to identify “change” parcels

– Apply lookup rates by place type to change parcels

Examples of Inventory+Change Approach (cont’d)

• Transit stops– Use 2005 GIS inventory of stops

for base year– Identify new lines by comparing

2005 and future year travel model transit networks (zone-base)

– Synthesize transit stops for the new lines

– Add new stops to inventory

Scale of Data Production

• Place3s land use datasets are the basis– Separate staff to work with local

agencies, committees etc. to develop land use scenarios in Place3s

– 2 persons full-time, 4-5 part time dedicated to this effort

– Place3s used for many land use planning, outreach and public relations functions

Page 19: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Scale of Data Production (cont’d)

• Inventory Data– Housing, employment, schools,

transit stops– Separate function, 5-6 staff work

part time on this– Episodic (updates every 2-3

years or for special projects

Page 20: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Scale of Data Production (cont’d)

• Time required to generate a full SACSIM dataset– Starting point: Complete,

regional Place3s dataset– Ending point: Complete,

runnable SACSIM dataset– Approximate duration: 1-2

weeks– Approximate staff time: 50

hours, spread between 4 staff– 20-30 hours running time for

buffering a new file (single thread workstation)

Page 21: Using Parcel Level Data for an Activity-Based Tour Model TRB Transportation Planning Application Conference May 8, 2007

Making It Faster

• Buffering: selective re-buffering

• Up front QC of files– Re-do’s are painful…

• Multi-threading / server farm (in budget next year)
