3 months ago OpenPaths testing plan:
- [x] Step 1: Test run 11 assignment with OpenPaths. This will tell us if switching to OpenPaths alone will save run time.
- [x] Step 2: Check the network accelerate box – this is a new algorithm in OpenPaths, not related to excessive nodes. Compared to Step 1, this will tell us if the network accelerate alone saves run time.
- [x] Step 3: Check the boxes of both network accelerate & remove excessive nodes. OpenPaths' “Remove cosmetic nodes” will create an irreversible network for assignment. If the result of Steps 1 & 2 are not desirable, we will rely on Step 3. If Step 3 result is desirable, we will remove cosmetic nodes in Lasso when writing out Emme network, so that we have correspondence between the standard network and the network after node removal.

User Story
The existing TM2 roadway network is highly detailed, including every street, bicycle path, and sidewalk. When the roadway network is extracted from this network, it contains numerous nodes that are unnecessary for roadway assignment.
OpenPaths EMME 2024 allows ignoring the cosmetic nodes in the highway assignment to speed up run time. We will test it to confirm the details.

Resolution Ideas
With the new EMME, we should be able to add an assignment argument to trigger the ignoring of cosmetic nodes.

Risk
We need to confirm if the output assigned network is in the original format with the cosmetic nodes, or in a simplified format that does not have the cosmetic nodes. It sounds like it should be the former.(?)
