Strategic Modelling
[Top]Gabites Porter Consultants have been have been leaders in the field of transport modelling in Australasia since the late 1970's. We have built on this lead over time with the development of TRACKS, a Transportation Planning Software package developed by GPC software engineers. Its use has spread from its base in New Zealand, where it is now the most widely used strategic transport planning package, to Australia, Malaysia and South Africa. Its functions include detailed modelling of:
- Highways/Roads/Streets/intersections
- Public Transport (including bus, ferry, and rail systems)
- Freight and Logistics
- Cycling and Walking
- Town Centres
- Car Parking
- Urban/demographic Growth
- Land development proposals
- Economic performance
- Vehicle Emissions
Micro simulation modelling
[Top]Gabites Porter Consultants are constantly pushing the boundaries in the field of transport modelling and simulation. In 1995 TRACKS incorporated more complex intersection analysis and 11 years later entered into an agreement with a leading software company to animate outputs from TRACKS outputs:
- Sidra Intersection Analysis
- UC-win/Road Traffic Simulation
Transport related surveying
[Top]Through our experience in developing transport models Gabites Porter Consultants have built up significant skills in traffic and parking survey design, implementation and management. We've conducted a wide range of surveys:
- Households Travel Surveys
- Vehicles Surveys (Origin Destination Number Plate Surveys)
- Travel Time Surveys (GPS technology)
- Passenger Surveys
- Parking Surveys
- Freight Surveys
