Creating Arrival Patterns using Frequency Based Data

You can fine tune your data further by creating pulses of arrival data at specific intervals. For example, in this way you could take a single Arrival Profile of 1000 Entities and create 10 separate arrivals (trains) of 100 (depending on any statistical ‘random noise’ you may require).

Note: You do not need to have created suborigins in order to use frequency based data.

You can also create Availability Profiles that are offset from these arrival pulses, so that you can associate certain events (like boarding or departing) with the arrival times and data.

We’ve broken down the frequency based portion of the worksheet into three topic areas: Ignoring Type IDs, using Type IDs, and Creating Availability Profiles.

Note: To enable all frequency based functions, you must first select Yes from the drop-down list next to the cell labelled ‘Frequency based?’.
