Land Use Transportation Interaction models: the succession of TIGRIS TIGRIS is a land-use transportation interaction (LUTI) model. After four successful applications, LUTI use has reached its stage of maturity in The Netherlands and the time has come to develop a new model which meets the disadvantages of the current model: TIGRIS is not based on explicit economic theory and TIGRIS is not calibrated on actual data. Commissioned by Rijkswaterstaat, AVV, a feasibility study was carried out during 2001 by three Dutch consultants: (i) Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam: Inputs from Economic Theory; (ii) RAND Europe: Literature review of Land Use models; (iii) MuConsult: Specifications and data inventory. This paper describes the existing models available internationally and gives recommendations for the development of the successor of TIGRIS. (Author/publisher)
