EXTRAPOLATED METHODOLOGY USED IN THE LOS ANGELES BASIN STANDARD TRAFFIC MODEL

The Los Angeles Basin Standard Traffic Model is a computer model of the air traffic expected in the basin in 1982. The report explains the methodology used to project into the 1982 time frame a similar model of 1972 traffic. A technique known as time compression was used to make the projection. This report also defines the two types of models produced, the snapshot and scan-by-scan models, and it explains how the former was extracted from the later. (Modified author abstract)
