Vienna, Austria
The Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) has created a MATSim model covering the city and agglomeration of Vienna (Austria).
The Model in a Nutshell
- Aims to represent traffic before the COVID pandemic (~2020)
- Simulation Area: Vienna and surroundings (between 40 and 80km away)
- area: 11,700 km²
- total population: 3.05 million (2013-01), 3.275 million (2020-01)
- Network: 375k links and 169k nodes extracted from OpenStreetMap (2021) and OGD transit timetables (VOR: Tuesday 2022-06-07, EVU: 2022-10-27) with pt2matsim
- Facilities: 654k locations extracted mainly from OpenStreetMap
- Population synthesis: based on the Austrian mobility survey Österreich Unterwegs 2013/14 by Tomschy et al. (2016) with ARUP PAM, scaled up to population of 2020
- Population: 332k agents represent 12.5% of the mobile population older than 5 years.
- Agents use the MATSim modes walk, bike, pt, car, ride.
- Trips include inside, source, destination and through traffic (see cordon traffic)
- Traffic by foreign citizens is not included (except for cargo traffic)
- Cargo traffic: represented as ~10% reduction in
flowCapacityFactor
andstorageCapacityFactor
and a reduction of all count stations. - Routing: SwissRailRaptor (not Ariadne)
- Mode choice model: 10 subpopulations, based on Greene and Hensher (2003), plus an additional subpopulation for cordon trips.
- Calibration: on modal split derived from synthesized population
Coverage Area
Area covered by the MATSim Model Vienna, light-blue areas contain facilities. The area contains Vienna and large parts of Lower Austria as well as parts of Burgenland (including St. Pölten, Wiener Neustadt, Hollabrunn, Mistelbach,…) where people tend to commute to Vienna.
Open Data
The model is available as open data along with more detailed information in a github repository.
