Build Socio-Economic DatabaseThe first step in the estimation of trip productions and attractions is Step 12, where the socioeconomicdatabase (primarily zonal demographic data) is put together from various input files.As detailed below, in order to implement this step for the consolidated system it was necessaryto append MVRPC zonal data to the existing <strong>OKI</strong> database. In addition the main Step 12program was updated so that it reads in the appropriate number of internal zones.2.1 Data FilesThe socioeconomic database for the consolidated region includes the variables listed in Table 2.1for all internal and external zones (2531 TAZs). These data reside in four separate files, asindicated in the table. The data included in A1002.95e were prepared by both planning agencies(<strong>OKI</strong> and MVRPC), and input into a single database "as provided".
