Combined Quantitative and Qualitative Approach to Planning for Improved Intermodal Connectivity at California Airports--Phase II Final Report.

摘要

This report has been prepared as the final deliverable for Phase II of a project for the California Department of Transportation to develop a combined quantitative and qualitative approach for planning for improved intermodal connectivity at California airports. The objectives of this phase were to further develop the Intermodal Airport Ground Access Planning Tool (IAPT) to improve its functionality, to estimate updated versions of mode choice models for use with the IAPT, to correct errors in the calculation of performance parameters by the IAPT, and to conduct a case study as a test of the IAPT. The objective of developing the IAPT is to provide a standard, transparent and scientific way for quantitative airport ground access project evaluation at the airport level. A user-friendly graphical interface makes it easy for a user to run the model in the following sequence of steps: (a) to define performance measures and the associated transportation service data variables for the different modes involved; (b) to select an airport or set of airports for inclusion in the analysis; (3) to define projects to be evaluated; (4) to input the air passenger and transportation service data required for the analysis; (5) to define and modify mode choice model coefficients; (6) to choose the performance measures to be used to compare the projects being evaluated; (7) to run the analysis process; (8) to view the output in different ways; and (9) to export the analysis output to text files for further analysis and use in decision making.
