SmartGAP Software and User's Guide (*SHRP 2 Prepublication Report)
|

Greetings!
Smart Growth Area Planning (SmartGAP) is a scenario planning software tool that synthesizes households and businesses in a region and determines their travel demand characteristics based on the characteristics of the built environment and transportation policies that affect their travel behavior. SmartGAP was developed as part of the SHRP 2 Project C16 (The Effect of Smart Growth Policies on Travel Demand), which built on existing work in this field, while recognizing that this is a relatively new arena of study in transportation planning. The User's Guide introduces SmartGAP, and it provides instructions for installing and using the software. Both the software and the guide can be found on the following page.
* To make research available as early as possible, SHRP 2 is temporarily posting final reports that have been submitted by the research team, reviewed according to the relevant National Academy of Sciences procedures, and accepted for publication. These prepublication drafts, which have not been edited or formatted for publication, will be replaced by the final versions as they complete the editorial process.
