Tresis is a land use, transport
and environment strategy simulator for the Sydney Metropolitan Area.
It is a combined set of models, consisting of location, vehicle, and
travel choices. On the short term and long term these models can
evaluate the impact of policies on individuals' and households'
travel behaviour and the environment. For example the impact of
congestion pricing on commuters' travel patterns.
The main
technology behind Tresis lies in its components:
An extensive database of land use, transport networks, population
demographics, and vehicle use.
A comprehensive set of demand and supply models.
An interface structure to link with specialised modules (e.g., air
quality measures).
These core components give Tresis unparalleled ability to predict
the effects of policy decisions on the urban environment. Tresis
simulations forecasts all motorised traffic, public and private,
which affect the Sydney Metropolitan Area. Public transport is a
particular focus for Tresis.
