Details

The report:

  • gives advice on good practice in preparing trip matrices
  • considered the different techniques for matrix building for differing applications
  • the use of suitable data sources to collect survey data
  • outlines a proposal to add guidance on how to develop base matrices to transport advice guidance

The practices given are to be used in conjunction with advice given in ‘Utilising mobile network data for transport modelling’.
