Sorry for late reply, I got something wrong with my laptop...
[1] Data Collection----we do it together, or better if some other groups want to join us.
Shuttle bus data: from OED, have u try to send mail to OED about it?
O-D Table, we check on Tue with other group and find if 1 or 2 group want to join us.
my suggestion: 10 mins counting for 4 locations (Entrance A, B, PGP and the one near NUH ) and 4 shifts
have u ever try if Paramics support 4 O-D matrix? if not, then we have only one O-D, collection will be easy.
* Better we can finish before 12-October
[2] Basic Simulation Model----I think everyone of us do one separately, then we choose a best one, that is also a chance for us to practice the software as well as to see the differences.
* Finish before 19-October
* Each one of us can keep the key for 2 days to do the basic simulation
[3] Proposal idea thinking. each of us responsible for one topic.
I think each of us find one Scenario, then total we have 3 scenarios, I suggest
1) keep the current route, change frequency.
2) Add University town, NUH MRT, and Kent Ridge new terminal, new route
3) let us think together.....
* Finish draft before 2-Nov, then we evaluate it and make changes
I will begin now to write the part of Introduction and area of study (Part I and II), as well as I will try to make some models of building
Xuyan, could you please make a "big" map for the simulation? either on google maps or google earth or other resources, I try many times, but not satisfied.
Tomorrow we can discuss further more and to check if other group can join us.
thanks
