By trip distribution or mode choice, demand matrices can be calculated which are used by demand segments for assignments (Trip distribution and Mode choice). In addition to the demand matrix further entries may be required for an assignment. A demand segment can refer to a time series for an analysis time interval dependent assignment.
With operation Time-of-Day Choice, a demand matrix of a demand segment can be spread over the time intervals of a standard time series. This standard time series can then be used as demand time series in PuT assignments or in the dynamic PrT assignments.
