Integration of GIS with Activity-Based Model in ATIS

Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS), which aim at the utilization of advanced information processing and communication technologies for improving travel efficiency and safety, have become an important policy measure in recent years. One of their major components, Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS), has been developed specifically to assist drivers in trip planning and decision making on destination selection, departure time, route choices and congestion avoidance.
