Developing an Approach for Tehran Residential Land Use Relocation Based on Equilibrium Trip Pattern

This paper addresses developing an approach to identify building orientation by using an important central concept of understanding the land use-transportation connection named accessibility measurement index (ami). in order to obtain a mis for each traffic analysis zone (taz) in tehran metropolitan, the combined trip distribution and assignment model (ctdam) is applied. we valid used ctdam, while the results are compared to the user-equilibrium assignment model (ueam) as well as the real observed origin-destination (o-d) data. the yardstick in the comparison study is the error of each method to predict observed links flow. obtained a mis from both ctdam and ueam and average land price are used to define development potential (dp) of residential location for each taz. the results show that if a taz has more distance from cbd, then it has more priority to increase residential density except marginal taz.
