Region-Based OD

iNode’s Region-based OD study type is optimized to analyze trips between user-defined regions. It can be applied at both microscopic and macroscopic levels, for example, in cut-through traffic studies at the neighborhood scale or in large-scale analyses such as transportation master plans.

What it is

  • Trips are aggregated between user-defined regions (polygons).
  • Produces a trip table (OD matrix) with flows between origins and destinations.

Designed for

Regional & macro-level studies where you want to understand where trips start and end , such as:

  • Travel demand modeling (feeding TAZ-based models).
  • Long-range planning and land use studies.
  • Evaluating accessibility and distribution of trips (e.g., from suburbs to CBD).
  • Before/after network changes (new freeway, transit hub, airport).

Output

OD matrices between regions, trip length distributions, and time-of-day distributions.
