3rdBESTUFS Round Table
"Application fields, use cases and opportunity"
Thematic focus:
The third roundtable concerned "Application fields use cases and opportunities". The intention of this roundtable was to identify the current applications fields of modelling in various countries and to compare expectations of decision makers with the outcomes of academics and consultants. This roundtable sought to address the following questions:
- Have the models discussed already been used, and, if so, in what ways?
- Are the modelling tools relevant for the decision-maker?
- When, how often, and in which situations should the models be used or data acquired
- Why should someone pay for the models?
- What improvements to the models are necessary?
The purpose of the third roundtable was to consider the decision makers objectives and whether the modelling tools developed by researchers and consultants were meeting their needs. For this reason, the presentations aimed to provide both of these parties' views.Thanks for the presentation about urban freight modelling work of five different cities.
