Abstract

Speeding up Transportation Planning Woes with GIS
Track: Modeling Techniques
Authors: Kyle Morgan, Nawid Nessar

With deadlines looming and existing workflows quickly becoming outpaced or outdated, a transportation planning department turned to GIS for the answers. One particular process that historically took 4 days per run was reduced to 5 minutes of run time. Another process based on an aging software platform was completely overhauled and replaced with ArcMap and Python while introducing new QC checks as part of the workflow.
