Transportation Planning Services
|
GeoStats offers transportation planning services in the following areas:
Transportation Model SupportTransportation planning models continue to evolve and
are becoming increasingly data intensive.
GeoStats has the expertise to support model
development efforts such as network coding, TAZ editing,
operations data collection, and socio-economic data
integration. GeoStats
also has the analytical experience to conduct post-model
analyses (including congestion ranking, emissions
analysis, select-link, etc.).
Congestion Management Process (CMP)GeoStats has participated on consultant teams for several CMP and CMS projects over the last few years. Our role has been to identify congestion monitoring areas and to evaluate levels of congestion along a network. Congestion data typically comes from field data collection and travel demand forecasting model results.
System Performance EvaluationSimilar to our work on CMP projects, GeoStats has performed a range of services that measure the performance of transportation systems. Such projects are typically concerned with measuring the impact of interventions on the street network and include both “before” and “after” measurements of travel time or delay. GeoStats makes heavy use of its in-house expertise in this area, using its TravTime software to efficiently perform analyses of large-scale performance evaluation studies.

Transportation Data IntegrationGeoStats’ experience with large transportation datasets has allowed us to participate in regional planning studies that have significant data integration needs. GeoStats has developed and employed innovative geospatial analyses such as combining disparate linearly referenced datasets, developing accessibility contours, integrating performance measures, emissions modeling, path-building and network loading of origin-destination (OD) data, and applying visual-analytics to transportation planning data. GeoStats is experienced in extracting tabular and spatial data from a variety of file formats and database servers. Our team of professionals has experience working with a variety of databases, including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, ESRI Geodatabases, Microsoft Access, and xBase flat-files. We also offer custom software development services. Past projects include:
