FSUTMS Comprehensive Modeling Workshop - Cambridge ...

Differences between ITE and FSUTMS (cont’d)
► ITE (Cont’d)
Land Use
Dozens of distinct land use categories
Land uses organized according to intensity and function
Trip Generation, Internal Capture, Pass-by Software
(TIPS) or Trip Generation by Microtrans
Software developed to do ITE trip generation automatically
Allows the user to input a variety of land uses at varying
intensities to simulate the proposed development characteristics
Calculates trip generation and internal capture based on ITE Trip
Generation Handbook techniques

Differences between ITE and FSUTMS (cont’d)
►FSUTMS
Automated Trip Calculations
Trip generation, distribution, and assignment are
conducted automatically using the modeling software
The model uses a set of specialized mathematical
models for trip calculation
• Generation – Cross-Tabulation or User-Specified Trip Rates
• Distribution – Gravity Model
• Assignment – Equilibrium Algorithm
The studied site is impacted by the trip-making behavior
of all other land uses in the model
