summary |
An informatics framework for sustainability analysis in urban transportation planning is developed in this paper. The framework consists of sustainability indicators, structured impact analysis, a general procedure, and a conceptual informatics framework which organises all these elements in a decision support system. In deriving sustainability indicators and structuring impact analysis, specific attention is given to comparisons between a trip-based approach and an activity-based approach, so that drawbacks of the conventional trip-based approach and potential of the activity-based approach are manifested in the context of sustainability analysis. Implications to the design of a decision support system for sustainability analysis are also discussed in terms of database and model base designs. |
