TR-T0127 PTV Visum - Model2Go Demand (UK)

PTV Model2Go Demand provides a starting point for a Visum model build. This training course will equip participants with the skills to effectively utilise their Model2Go Demand package. The course provides a comprehensive guidance to understand what is delivered with a Model2Go model, including the various model components, navigating the demand structure, and customising the model to meet local use cases.

By the end of the course, participants will be able to run the demand model and review assignment results for both highway and public transport networks and have the skills to modify the model for further use.

Intermediate

This course is designed for transport modellers who have some experience with demand modelling and wish to understand how Model2Go can support their modelling projects in PTV Visum.

Participants should have prior knowledge of the PTV Visum software and basic experience with demand modelling concepts.
