Network Conflation Experience- Lessons Learned (so far) Jonathan Ehrlich Metropolitan Council
Why Conflate? • Accurate distances • Realistic mapping • Ability to add data from other sources • Error-Checking
Tier3 Conflation Process • Proof of Concept: • Conflation of Network for 7 Counties • Conflate TAZ Centroids using Control Model • Conflation to NAVTEQ Street Product • Maintain all Demand Network Node Connectivity • Use Core gConflate Technology
Tier3 Process • Proprietary Process • Automated • Relative Offset
Continuing Issues • Software • Speed • Clumsy Tools • Data • Navteq vs TLG • Future “off”-network coding (i.e. HOT) • Transit
