Integrated Knowledge-Based Geographic Information System for Determining Optimal Location of Park-and-Ride Facilities

Assessing Park-and-Ride Efficiency and User Reactions to Parking Management Strategies

“…The majority of more recent research literature focuses on methods to optimally locate these facilities within an existing network (Aros-Vera et al 2013;Faghri et al 2002;García and Marín 2002;Horner and Groves 2007) or idealized network structures (Liu et al 2009;Wang et al 2004). However, little guidance exists to address a rapidly-emerging problem: the overutilization of capacity-constrained park-and-rides.…”

A Bi-Objective Model for Siting Park-and-Ride Facilities with Spatial Equity Constraints

“…Figure 3(b) is the result of our model; there are 5 transfer facilities selected, the optimal deployment tends to be more spread-out due to the spatial equity constraints. (6) (b) With the spatial equity constraints (6) …”

“…Existing literature related to the P&R facility location problem can be generally categorized into three classes, i.e., decision support system [5,6], equilibrium analysis [7,8] and mathematical programming [9][10][11][12][13]. Horner and Grubesic [5] and Faghri et al [6] X. Lu, R. Guo: A Bi-Objective Model for Siting Park-and-Ride Facilities with Spatial Equity Constraints developed various hybrid knowledge-based expert system and geographic information system tools to determine the optimal location of a P&R facility.…”

“…Horner and Grubesic [5] and Faghri et al [6] X. Lu, R. Guo: A Bi-Objective Model for Siting Park-and-Ride Facilities with Spatial Equity Constraints developed various hybrid knowledge-based expert system and geographic information system tools to determine the optimal location of a P&R facility. These systems provide multiple criteria to investigate alternative solutions, such as close to the central business district (CBD), the competition around the parking lot, and near the subway station.…”

Continuum modeling of park-and-ride services considering travel time reliability and heterogeneous commuters – A linear complementarity system approach

“…Horner and Grubesic (2001) proposed a flexible GIS-based method to determine the potential locations of terminal P&R facilities along urban rail lines. Faghri et al (2002) developed a hybrid knowledge-based expert system to assist in determining the optimal P&R location. Farhan and Murray (2005) proposed a GIS-based approach to delineate catchment areas, which accounted for P&R facility accessibility and user travel direction.…”
