Abstract

The development and application of transport models is a widespread and exciting work. To make sound and solid transport policy plans, not only good models are needed, but also good management and maintenance of the models. Without good management and maintenance, the results may become unreliable. For example, different users produce with the same model and the samescenarios different results. In the Netherlands this aspect of transport models gained more and more attention over the past few years. Both at a regional and national level, schemes and plans have been developed, to manage and maintain the strategic and tactic transport models, such as the Dutch National Model System (NMS) and the New Regional Model (NRM). At European level, first initiatives have been taken to improve the management of asystem like TransTools. This study deals with the management and maintenance of transport models, drawing from experiences from the Netherlands, aswell as from abroad. For the covering abstract see ITRD E145999
