"best Software for Travel Demand Modelling with Minimum Coding"

5/5

What do you like best about PTV Visum?

The software has all the modules and steps of Travel demand modelling like Trip Generation, Distribution, Modal Split and Assignment. The software is very upto date with testing of innovation in field like Shared Mobility, Dynamic Assignment etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PTV Visum?

The one part that can be improved is mode choice modeling as it has limited capabilities to generate Fuzzy based mode choice models and we have to import it from the other software like MATLAB Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
