Homework - Visualizing Bus Routing Results - Due Thursday, April 4 #10

Open cmurray3 opened 3 months ago

cmurray3 commented 3 months ago

All, As discussed in class, the following homework assignment is due on Thursday:


  1. Write a Python function that will do the following, for a given "experiment":

    • Plot all origin locations
    • Plot all destinations
  2. Evaluate the routing results from an "experiment" run.

    • Note 1: Some of the data are well-suited for a matrix/table. In particular, the output from the routing.py script will provide:

      • Total travel time (exclude wait time)
      • Total walking distance
      • Walking distance TO bus stop
      • Walking distance FROM bus stop
    • Note 2: For each O/D pair, there could be

      • 1 route that is both the minimum time and minimum walking distance route;
      • 1 route for minimum time and a separate route for minimum walking; or
      • no routes. I'm looking for you to produce a suitable visualization of these data.

To test your function, you should use the data that you generated in class today, using the code described in https://github.com/IE-670/spring2024/issues/9.

Recall that the goal of this exercise is to create visualization/analytic tools to help us assess and understand the outputs from the bus routing tool.

I will call on you to demonstrate your .py script in class on Thursday.
