Model Results

SeaCast Outputs

At the end of a model run, a number of outputs are produced in Excel, HTML, and text format. These outputs are a starting point for analyzing results and users may create other summaries from emmebanks on their own. In this folder are two HTML pages that should serve as the starting point for checking results:

• topsheet.html: aggregate results for VMT, VHT, and Delay, by time of day and facility type, mode share
• metrics.html: average costs, etc.

The other most useful outputs include the following spreadsheets:

• outputs\network\network_summary_detailed.xlsx: several sheets reporting a wide variety of results, from traffic counts to transit boardings and VMT, VHT, and delay by time of day.
• outputs\daysim\DaysimReport.xlsx: basic summaries of Daysim models including average trip length, VMT per person, etc.

The standard outputs are stored in the \outputs directory, in the format below. See the detailed wiki page for full list of outputs produced from a model run.
