TL;DR
The paper describes the implementation of this travel diary survey, which was conducted in Karlsruhe and Halle, two German cities of about 270,000 inhabitants each, in the autumn of 1999, and the development of the forms, the design of the survey protocol, the screening experiences and an assessment of the data quality.

A comprehensive travel demand modeling framework is proposed to identify and model the urban development decisions of firms and developers and the mobility, activity and travel decisions of individuals and households to develop a system of models that can be used by decision makers and planners to evaluate the effects of changes in the transportation system and development of information technologies.
Environment and Planning A Economy and SpaceActivity Pattern Analysis by Means of Sequence-Alignment Methods
170 Citations1998William C. Wilson
The author describes a method of comparing sequences of characters, called sequence alignment or string matching, and illustrates its use in the analysis of daily activity patterns derived from time-use diaries, and offers a challenge to researchers to begin to develop theories about the determinants of daily behavior as a whole.

158 Citations2000Karthik K. Srinivasan, Hani S. Mahmassani
The empirical results strongly support the simultaneous presence of both the compliance and inertia mechanisms in route choice behavior and indicate that information quality, network loading and day-to-day evolution, level-of-service measures, and trip-makers’ prior experience are significant determinants of route choice through the inertial and compliance mechanisms.

106 Citations2003Karthik Srinivasan, Hani S. Mahmassani
The empirical results indicate that unobserved effects account significantly for the observed variability in route-switching behavior, and the largest improvement in model fit is achieved by incorporating observed heterogeneity followed by unobserved preference and response heterogeneity respectively.

It is shown that substantial benefits may be achieved by employing a multiday sample in least squares estimation of linear regression models of travel behaviour, and the results clearly show the superiority of two-day samples relative to traditional single- day samples.
