Distances by trip purpose seem off #140

In MITO, trip lengths for several purposes seem to be off. Work trips seem to be too long, and in particular non-home based trips seem way too long. @MtthsLanger : Could you summarize from MiD the average trip length by trip purpose? @joanna-ji : Once Matthias provided you new trip lengths by purpose, could you recalibrate MITO?

After running the "read_B1.R" script and excluding long-distance trips, the average trip lengths are the following:

"t.purpose" "meanLength" "HBE" 5.7 "HBO" 5.8 "HBS" 4.1 "HBW" 11.3 "NHBO" 6.1 "NHBW" 7.0

Joanna is informed. My files with exact numbers are here: \nas.ads.mwn.de\tubv\mob\indiv\matthias\mito

Thank you, Matthias. I believe all numbers, except for the NHB values. When I worked with such data in the US, NHB trips were much shorter (around 2 miles). I would like to sit down with Matthias and review how NHB trips are defined in our MiD analysis. @joanna-ji: Please wait calibrating NHB trips until we had a chance to review the data.
