Typically, the following steps have to be carried out for analyses by means of the PuT operator model. Depending on the indicators to be calculated, not all of the steps are always necessary.
1. Parameterization and calculation of PuT assignment procedures (User Manual: Setting and calculating PuT assignment parameters).
2. Creating PuT vehicles (User Manual: Managing PuT vehicles) and allocating vehicle journeys (vehicle combinations, vehicle units).
3. Creating a fare model (ticket types, fare zones, fare points) (User Manual: Revenue calculation using the fare model).
4. Definition of a cost model (hourly costs, kilometer costs, vehicle costs, stop point costs, link costs, operator costs) (User Manual: Creating a cost model)
5. Parameterization and calculation of the PuT line blocking procedure (User Manual: Calculating PuT line blocks).
6. Definition of the reference frameworks for evaluations
- Definition of territories (User Manual: Creating a territory) and selection of the aggregation level for evaluations by territory (User Manual: Parameters for PuT operating indicators calculation).
- Definition of analysis time intervals for evaluations by time slice (User Manual: Adjusting the general procedure settings).
- Definition of operators (User Manual: Creating an operator) and allocation to vehicle journeys.
- Definition of the projection factor (User Manual: Specifying a calendar and valid days).
7. Calculation of the Territory indicators procedure (User Manual: Calculating basic territory indicators).
8. Calculation of the PuT operating indicators procedure for the desired indicator classes (User Manual: Calculating PuT operating indicators).
