Define Route and Itinerary Using a Map

Define route anchors:

Start    Switch    End

Steps:

  1. Define a route by selecting the type of anchor and then clicking on the map (distances will appear in the form)
  2. Drag transportation means on the route or onto route section to define itineraries.
  3. Name the itinerary and save it.

You can drag transportation means onto the routes or route sections in the form to define itineraries.

Calendar

Steps:

  • First, select an itinerary in the left column.
  • Then, select the days that an itinerary is used in the calendar.
  • Repeat the steps for the next itinerary in your commute scenario, and so on.
  • Save the commute scenario that you created and name it.

What you can do here:

  • Select a commute scenario for exploration (left column).
  • Press "Run Commute Simulation" to see the impact of the scenario. For illustration and comparison, the simulation also calculates the impact for the case that a transportation means is used exclusively.
  • Change the number of days and see the effect of the changes by pressing button "Run Commute Simulation". (Go to the calendar room to make major changes to the commute scenario and return for new simulations.)
  • Set an anchor to compare the savings with (right column). The anchor is highlighted.

More interesting presentations of the result are provided in the presentation room.
