Understanding GIS Modeling for Sustainable CommunitiesUC Davis ExtensionSacramento, CA Recent legislation has brought the need for using computers to model the future of our communities to the forefront of many local and regional planning efforts. Implicit in these modeling programs is the consideration of what transportation facilities (roads, trails, light rail, buses, sidewalks and bike paths) will be needed to support a sustainable community. Integrated modeling brings land use and transportation modeling into a cohesive structure for analyzing the effects of land use on travel, as well as the effect of transportation investments on land development. Gain an overview of the types of land use and transportation models in common use throughout California, their strengths and weaknesses, and how they can be used together to provide a platform for informing land use and transportation decisions.
