Distributing a matrix on paths
With this procedure, you can distribute the values of a demand matrix to paths (Fundamentals: Paths).
Notes: Existing volumes will be overwritten during the distribution. Matrices will only be distributed to paths if they start and end at matching zones. Via attribute Share of path set target, you can specify beforehand the share that shall be assigned to each path (Properties and options of PrT paths). |
1. On the toolbar, click the Open 'Procedure sequence' window button.
The Procedure sequence window opens.
2. Add the Distribution of demand matrix to paths procedure from the Matrices category to the given order of procedures in the procedure sequence (Setting up and starting the procedure sequence).
3. In the row of the inserted procedure, click the button in the Reference object(s) column.
The Select matrix window opens.
4. Select the matrix which is to be distributed to the paths. Here, two methods are provided (Selecting matrices).
Element | Description |
---|---|
Select matrix directly |
From the list of all matrices, select the desired matrix by its number. |
Select matrix by properties |
Select a matrix by certain attributes and their values. |
5. Confirm with OK.
The selected matrix is listed in the Reference object(s) column.
6. Make sure the added procedure is marked. Then, in the Operations section, click the Edit button.
The Distribute matrix to paths window opens.
7. Make the desired changes.

Description |
Only active path sets |
If the option has been selected, only the volumes of active paths will be distributed. |
Consider OD pair filter |
If the option is selected, the OD pair filter is taken into account (Exception: Filter for OD pairs). |
8. Confirm with OK.
9. Execute the procedure (Executing procedures in the procedure sequence).
The matrix values are distributed to the paths.
