摘要：AbstractModelling large-scale traffic flow systems at a disaggregate level can be data intensive as it requires extensive knowledge about the activities and activity chains of vehicles. This paper focuses on activity chain generation for commercial vehicles. We use a large sample of GPS records to extract a complex network and sample chain characteristics from. The paper makes a valuable contribution in both its methodology, and in its focus on intra and inter-provincial vehicle populations simultaneously. The simulated chains are validated in terms of vehicle kilometrekilometres travelled and its spatiotemporal accuracy, comparing favorably in both.
