Calculating stop area skim matrices

In principle the calculation of skims between stop areas is analogous to the calculation for skims between zones (Fundamentals: Skims between stop areas).

1.  For each skim matrix, specify the desired settings (Setting metadata for skim matrices).

2.  Make sure your settings for the stop area skim matrices are correct (Settings for PuT skim matrix calculation)

3.  From the Calculate menu, choose Procedure sequence.

The Procedure sequence window opens.

4.  In the procedure sequence, at the position of your choice, add the Calculate stop area skim matrix procedure of the Matrices category (Setting up and starting the procedure sequence).

5.  In the row of the inserted procedure, click the button in the Reference object(s) column.

The Select Demand segments window opens.

6.  Select the desired entries.

7.  Confirm with OK.

The window closes. The selected demand segments are listed in the Reference object(s) column.

8.  In the row of the added procedure, click in the Variant/file column.

A selection list appears.

9.  In the drop-down list, select the desired entry.

The selected entry is displayed in the column.

10.  Make sure that the inserted operation is marked and click the Edit button in the Operations section.

The window Parameter assignment procedure: [selected version/file] opens.

11.  If applicable, edit the desired settings in the Basis tab.

Note: The settings in the Basis tab, in the Zone selection and Assignment time interval sections are relevant for skim matrix calculation (Timetable-based assignment: Basis page).

12.  After selecting multiple demand segments, make sure that in the Demand segments tab, the assignment parameters set are correct (Timetable-based assignment: Demand segments page).

13.  In the Skim matrices tab, make the desired settings (Settings for PuT skim matrix calculation).

14.  Click the OK button.

The Parameters for assignment procedure window closes.

15.  Execute the procedure (Executing procedures in the procedure sequence).

The skim matrices are calculated.

Note: You can then open and edit the skim matrices (Editing matrix values).
