Abstract
The fitting or calibration of a simulated assignment of traffic on a network model with the flows observed on a real network is a basic part of the validation of a transport planning model. This paper is concerned with examining some of the problems involved in this calibration process and with presenting the results of some empirical work on inter-urbain traffic assignment which will illustrate the nature of some of these problems. The discussion is prefaced by an outline of the traffic assignment process and concludes with some ideas for further work in this area.
