In all cases, these data can be used in different ways as inputs of econometric discrete choice models. This allows to estimate the weights of the different attributes characterizing an alternative. For freight transport, an alternative's attributes would be, for example, reliability, safety, frequency, etc., besides time and cost. Depending on the data sample, number of alternatives and number of attributes, it is possible to proceed to an analysis of individual data or of aggregated data. In case one is interested to analyze individual behaviors in depth, the option exists to rely on some kind of multicriteria analysis for deriving individual utility functions (actually, decision functions) rather than on a classic discrete choice model. Such a procedure also can be useful for deriving individual utilities as input in a hybrid model combining individual utilities with group data. Such a multic...

It aims at analyzing the impacts of the 40 tons trucks exclusion from Switzerland on the international freight traffic through its territory and the Alpine chain. In particular, it focuses on the substitution effect between road and rail, on the choice of itineraries for bypassing Switzerland, and on the use of combined transport. The analysis is based on the trans-European network of roads and railways as defined by the European Conference of Ministers of Transport.

L'analyse est réalisée à l'aide de l'éditeur de réseaux NODUS, développé à la F.U.Ca.M., sur lequel a été digitalisé l'ensemble du réseau. Ce logiciel permet diverses manipulations du réseau telles que l'ouverture d'une voie, son élargissement ou la construction d'une écluse. Nous avons donc étudié l'influence que pouvaient avoir de telles modifications sur les itinéraires utilisés et les coûts de transport. Le choix des itinéraires et les coûts résultent de la minimisation des coûts de transport, compte tenu du gabarit des voies et des types de bateaux disponibles. Des illustrations de la méthode sont faites sur les données de tous les mouvements de bateaux observés en 1988, qui nous ont été communiquées par l'Institut National de Statistique belge (I.N.S.).

It has the advantage on other systems to be completely open and flexible: external modules, especially developed to solve particular problems, can easily be « plugged » in the main software. Moreover, it implements a detailed analytical structure that allows an easy set-up of all kinds of parameters. It is also one of the very few G.I.S. focusing on transportation of goods. Although NODUS can be used for many different analytical tasks and optimizing various objective functions, our research was centered on the costs of freight-transportation. The initial motivation was to develop a tool for evaluating the economic impacts of transportation's new infrastructures and policies. Obviously, savings in the costs of transports are one important benefit of new infrastructures; with this model, they can be ...
