Welcome to SustainCity

The goal of this project was to address the modelling and computational issues of integrating modern mobility simulations with the latest micro-simulation land use models. The project intended to advance the state-of-the-art in the field of the microsimulation of prospective integrated models of Land-Use and Transport (LUTI). On the modelling side, the main challenges were to integrate a demographic evolution module, to add an environmental module, to improve the overall consistency and, last but not least, to deal with the multi-scale aspects of the problem: several time horizons and spatial resolutions were involved.
