Managing matrices

Matrices are separate objects in Visum and part of the demand description (Fundamentals: Matrices). Demand modeling uses different types of matrices. They are edited and managed fairly similarly.

  • Demand matrices contain the number of trips between zones or main zones per demand segment.
  • Skim matrices contain skim data for pairs of zones or main zones, for example travel time.

Note: Besides managing Visum matrices, Visum also allows you to manage matrices created with other programs (Managing, showing and analyzing matrices and Editing matrix values).
