Tutorial Vehicle-Miles-Traveled (VMT)

Vehicle-Miles-Traveled (VMT) is calculated from the Link_Lane_Detector output file to match the Veh Hours Traveled (Column V) given in the LinkResults output file. Using R (or Excel), $$SimvehicleCount$$ determines the number of vehicles traversing the subject link; $$LinkLength$$ can be acquired from the Table View in the SwashSim; $$VMT$$ is then calculated by $$SimvehicleCount\times LinkLength$$.
