Intersection Modeling in VISUM

Assignment can be link based and/or node based

Delay computation at intersection can be:

• Turning movement based (using volume-delay functions)

• Entire intersection based (using volume-delay functions — T-Model™ standard)

• Turning movement based (using HCM or similar methodologies — powered by TRAFFIX™)
