INTEGRATION OF AN ACTIVITY-BASED MODEL SYSTEM AND A RESIDENTIAL LOCATION MODEL

We present an integrated discrete choice model system of a household's residential location choice and its members' activity and travel sche dules. A daily schedule consists of tours, characterised by destinatio ns, times of day and travel modes. The activity and travel models supp ly the residential model with an accessibility measure for each househ old member, namely the expected maximum utility among available daily activity schedules, conditioned by the chosen pattern of tours and, fo r workers, the workplace, A nested legit model system is estimated and applied for Boston. It does not fit the data quite as well as a work- trip-based comparison model, but its predictions capture additional ef fects attributable to the more comprehensive accessibility measure.
