Concurrent Workshops Workshop 1: When Can VisionEval Substitute for Travel Models This workshop leads you on an interactive and exploratory analysis of MPOs looking to use the VisionEval strategic travel model. Workshop participants will learn about VisionEval - looking at the types of inputs and outputs, the performance measures, and how the tool can provide many of the answers necessary to support the development of the Long-Range Plan. The workshop will have the participants take the role of an MPO and using results from sample VisionEval models, map out the outcomes of their LRTP. The workshop will then use results from hundreds of model runs to explore how uncertainty and changes in certain inputs change the possible outcomes in the future. Using visualizers, the participants will analyze the results to develop robust strategies and evaluate how their original singular future scenario in the LRTP might change in light of changes in the inputs used in the modeling.
