America’s Next Stop Model: Better Ridership Forecasting Using GIS, GTFS, and Public Data

On the heels of FTA’s STOPS Transit Ridership Model come new techniques to further improve transit project modeling by using commonly available resources.  Presentations explore the use of GTFS to code transit model networks, Census and GPS data to develop trip patterns, and Open Trip Planner to generate travel paths.  Detail will also be presented on how to incorporate transit network data into a full, state-wide transportation model and options for analyzing service and fare equity.
