Abstract
With the increase of the availability of disaggregated data, the modelling of residential location choices on a disaggregated level, has recently gained more and more popularity. All of these studies report on a variety of methodological approaches, but ignore a systematic selection of the variables to include. Within the project SustainCity (www.SustainCity.org) an integrated land use transport simulation environment is being set up for the study areas of Paris, Brussels and Zurich. The implementation of location models into this simulation is limited through the data model of the simulation software. In order to understand these limitations we want to explore the objects and attributes that commonly have proved to be of relevance to residential location choice models. In this paper we explore this topic and compare the variables that have been reported in recent literature of disaggregated residential location choice. The focus shall be an overview of the main findings, to understand common behaviour, and what therefore is necessary to represent in the data structure of urban simulation. Show more
