Hello TMIPers,
I am organizing a session at TRB that will explore whether gender should be included in travel demand models. As part of that effort, I’m looking at if/how current travel demand models are including gender. I’ve started a Google sheet to gather information. You can either include info directly into that sheet or send me the info about your model (or models you work with) directly (mbina@camsys.com). I only include the ask for agency/model name in the request for information to ensure I don’t double count. Information can be very basic (included or not) or specific (with parameter specifications). At the end, this information will be aggregated to develop a sense of the current state of the practice. Since there may be a lot of ways to answer these questions, I'll take any information however you see best to provide, even if it's a quickly email that your model doesn't include gender.
Thanks,
Michelle Bina
