Abstract

Modeling and estimating travel production and absorption are important issues in transportation planning.Numerous methods have been used to model travel production and absorption. The method used in this study is the spatial weight regression method, which can be said to be based on regression. And it also includes spatial data and geographic information, which means that each region has to be looked at given the geographic impact of that region . And one parameter in one area may have a large impact if the same parameter in another region has no effect on the model, just as a commercial complex in one area may have a different travel absorption rate than its similar commercial complex in another region. Zanjan's socioeconomic data were used in this study and the city was divided into 150 traffic areas and the trips were separated by the purpose of the trips. In this study, we have worked on a home based business model, and then using ARCGIS software we will come up with a model using spatial weight regression that will show more accurate and reliable results than general regression results.
