TRANSPORTATION MODELING  

Build a future-proof transportation system easily adaptable to changing demographic, mobility, and spatial conditions

Recent and validated data inputs support robust traffic simulation and model development that reflects current conditions. Get readily available multimodal inputs to ensure a reliable transportation system with minimal strain on resources and costs.

GET STARTEDREAD CASE STUDY

Gauge the performance of your transportation system with models that represent true mobility patterns

Update base year models with recent travel behavioral data for All Vehicles and Truck mode

Access traffic volume and speed for all roads, any hour of the day to inform route choices

Get granular Metrics by road segment, county, block group, TAZ, and more

Many Cities and MPOs do not have access to regular traffic counts on low-activity corridors such as local roads. StreetLight is a next-generation data source, offering a more comprehensive traffic picture than we’ve ever had before. The applications are endless.
